I put on all my gear and took the Honda RC-51 out of the truck today… had some fun on riding on the salt flats. Set up my camera on timer for this shot… used my gloves for a tripod. ;P

International Female Ride Day!
Happy International Female Ride Day! Hope you all got out on the road for a bit.

International Female Ride Day was founded by Vicki Gray, also known as Motoress. The Motoress website is an online magazine dedicated to women motorcyclists. Vicki and I share a passion for motorcycling- we both eat, sleep, and breathe motorcycles. She founded the ride because she wanted to give us more presence- “Women riding motorcycles isn’t new. As long as there’ve been motorcycles, there’ve been women who ride them. It’s simply a way to show how many of us there are.” She says that it’s accomplished it’s mission. “For eight years now, women get out there and just ride, and that’s all I ever asked. Of course, I hope someday it will have a permanent place in women’s lives. Like Mother’s Day, for example.” (Cycle World)
