On the way out of Chopperfest 2014 in Ventura, California weekend before last… I spotted a fashionable young lady fiddling with her custom Sportster. After I took a photo she looked at me and I realized it was Cassandra Wages! I mostly know her from instagram- she goes by DustDiablo! Oh the wonderful world of the internet, how cool it can be sometimes. She is a very talented photographer and producer who lives in Los Angeles.
Her man, Michael Barragan (boss man at Evil Spirit Engineering) is on a pretty-in-pink FXR in the background.
After I got all up in her face for photos, she let me take one more and they sped off into the sunset.

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.
