Malary Lee, mermaid haired Iowa native residing in Austin, Texas, kickstarting her vintage CB350 Honda.
The bike was previously owned by her boyfriend’s Father who passed away, she bought it up when the opportunity presented itself. “There is definitely something special about the bike and even though I’ve never met his dad I feel like we hang out when I ride.”
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.
