This woman, Sash Walker (link) of ‘Road Pickle Motorcycle Bohemia’, is fearless. Through snow, ice, and dropping her bike… all to get from San Diego, California to Denver, Colorado for the Steel Horse Sisterhood Summit.

I do love Portland, look at those crazy folks who rode to the show in the ~5 inches of snow. Quickie shots of some bikes and one behind the scenes, too.
