Mite a been fun to hang onto
She wrote a cool book about her journey. It’s a fun read.
…How did that work, exactly?
Cool Wiki. What was the deal with the dog she ran over, though?
In the 1980s, in case anyone was wondering why it’s not in colour.
Going to track down the book.
Kind of funny how they have to stretch the achievement.
“First person to… OK, a man did it first, but first WOMAN to… OK, no, sorry, Helga from Germany fuxking nailed it.”
How does one cross the Atlantic by motorcycle?
can’t stop looking at the optical illusion of those trunks. is shev sitting on them? is one stuck in the wheel?
She has a lot of videos on youtube telling her story, I recommend watching them to anyone who’s interested in motorcycle adventuring. Woman lives in an old Victorian era water tower, pretty awesome!
Is that a Vincent Black Lightning 1952?
Adventurous and good looking.
Ahh the ol’ reach around
My ass hurts just thinking about that ride. 5 hours and my tail bone is crying
This is like a gussiness book record, any one could do it, just takes time and money.
Y’all should have seen her jump the Bering Strait. That was before they passed the Laws of Physics to prevent people from being so reckless.
What an awesome name.
I’m getting Coach Beard vibes lol. Wonder if she has a fictional brother…
How? Water everywhere
So she rode on four of six continents and ate a dog that she ran over. “Circumnavigated,” indeed.
