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.
My friends over at Icon Motosports keep blowing my mind with their marketing and bad ass hooliganism. They killed it (yet again) with this f*cking epic moto vs car drift battle video.
The first motorcycle vs car drift battle was pretty bad ass, but this… this just takes the cake.
When I did the Icon shoot (photos coming soon), I drove out into the Colombia Gorge and met up with Nick ‘Apex’ Brocha and Ernie Vigil who had just shot this video the few days before. Needless to say they were exhausted, but still so much fun. Great job guys!
