Rachel Ashton Anderson on her yellow 2001 Suzuki SV650. This lovely lady stopped in for a tire change at MotoCorsa on her way to Los Angeles from Victoria, Canada. She had some time off work at Steve Drane Harley Davidson, so she decided “Hey… it’s time for a road trip!” Atta girl, that’s what I like to hear.
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.
