Clara Wagner: The First Woman to Race Motorcycles?
Jumpin’ on the Throwback Thursday bandwagon- photos from the first time I rode a liter (litre for your Europeans) bike, and the first time on a Ducati sport bike. Did I have fun, you wonder? Well when I brought the bike back, not realizing I scrubbed those ‘chicken strips’ down quite a bit, the owner first gave me wide eyes followed by a slight scowl.
No one likes someone else riding their bike harder than they do- he told me to “go have fun and ride it fast”… so I did. My bad!
