91-Year-Old Woman Tears Up the Track on a Gixxer
In case you missed it in the Motorcycle news section.
Title is a bit misleading. She was riding as a passenger with former Superbike racer Chris Ulrich. Video won't embed directly, but it's in the article. https://rideapart.com/articles/91-ye...s-track-gixxer Good for her! |

Stories like this remind me that, I has been, is and always will be about the people. Imagine if she stayed for grilling after the day was done, the stories she could tell....

Looks like they are located in Beloit, WI. Interesting that they called it "the Chicago area".
They even sponsor a MotoAmerica race team - http://broaster.com/racing/ "Team Genuine Broaster Chicken Honda is comprised of the experienced team owner Danny Walker, veteran rider Jake Gagne, and motorcycles and technical support from Honda." I've lived about an hour away, both in WI and the Chicago area, my entire life and never heard of the company. |

seriously though, interesting that they'd have the funding to sponsor a MA team and not be well known in their area
