Here is a picture of my daughter when she was about 3 yrs old helping out in the garage. She is now 6 yrs old and rides with me on my 1968 R50US BMW.
I wrote a little blog post wondering how we might influence our children as a rider and owner of vintage motorcycles. I am happy that my oldest wants to ride, and my younger daughter at 4 yrs old is looking forward when she can reach the passenger pegs.
Aww, a little MotoLady in the making!

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.
