Bessie Stringfield: African American Queen of the Road
World’s First Two-Wheel Motorcycle Burnout
How does one do a burn out on an AWD motorcycle? Simple, chain it to a big-ass post. Gregor Halenda, who I met on the photoshoot for the Silodrome + MotoLady Icon 1000 Akorp jacket review, teamed up with his studio partner Thomas Liggett to create this rather awesome video.
High fives all around.
The video shows footage of it on dirt, kicking up a lot of dust. It gave me goosebumps, that’s for sure. First thing I thought? I want to ride it!
I also really enjoy the engineer description of how it works. Watch the video and you’ll know what i mean (below).
