Many of you know that my coworker Erica was injured while riding her Ducati last month. The damage is extensive, the road to recovery is long.
The amount of support from the motorcycling community has been incredible.
Previously, See See Motorcycles (website) held a raffle for a sweet little custom motorcycle (among other things) and raised $1,500 for the cause.
Now it’s MotoCorsa’s turn to help out our own.
Tomorrow is the big day- BBQ Benefit for Erica Price sponsored by MotoCorsa (website). The raffle is going to be absolutely epic, with a veritable gold mine of swag and gear. If you’re in the area, be sure to make it. If not, you can still donate online to help Erica’s recovery.
Ducati is having Nicky Hayden sign a MotoGP team work shirt at Laguna Seca, Puma donated Desmo boots, Icon donated some gear certificates, we’ve got track days out the whazoo… All this amongst other prizes like a Bell Star Helmet (the same kind that saved Erica’s life), MotoCorsa bike service, Ogio bags, Concert tickets, Wine and Coffee, the list continues.
It shall be truly epic.
Come support the cause, win some cool stuff and eat some good food. All the proceeds from the day go straight to Erica.
Mary McGee is a pioneer in American motorcycle racing, thanks to her untamable determination and a spirit as warm as her smile. Her excitement for motorcycling, especially racing, is contagious even in her eighties. She was the first woman to receive an FIM racing license in the United States, first woman to complete the Baja 1000, and the first woman to race the Baja 500 solo. These aren’t her only firsts, either. She was also the first woman in motocross and road racing in the States. McGee was rightly inducted into the AMA Hall of Fame in 2018.
