This weekend I rode a sport bike for the first time! (Crazy, I know.) Not only was it a sport bike, but a Honda CBR600RR and it’s got pegs positioned for track. So it was definitely a different world for me. A world I now will have a hard time resisting… This thing goes way too fast for street use. 
Special thanks to Heath for letting me get down with his 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.
