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.
Born Free 6 Chopper Mania (video)
It’s been a while since Born Free happened- the end of June to be precise. After the event I put together my video footage for What A Ride 24/7 and now I want to share it with you!
Along with a few more photos from the event of fantastic bikes. Crazy to think I still have hundreds more…
This is one of my favorite photos from the whole event- the odd couple hanging out in the shade before taking off together.
Alright, check out the video! Sorry about the scratch on most of the GoPro footage, didn’t realize it was there until it was too late. Oh well!

Congratulations for the video. We can observe several bikes that are at least amazing motorcycles. This type of work helps to see how fun are these types of events, meetings, where many fail friendships and exchange information on. I am always attentive to your work and you twist to make this work for many years. Would like to attend this and other events, but meetings, hill far away, in Brazil. Bye.
