[emrat:11229] International Women's Day, motorcycle edition

In recognition of International Women's Day 2019 and in keeping the spirit of this motorcycle riders group, here are some women who trail blazed on 2 wheels.

I started reading about Bessie Stringfield and ended up going down the internet rabbit hole.

There are some interesting stories here and there are many more women that have done some amazing things on motorcycles.
