Episode 90: 2017 Motorcycle Events, Touring in Italy, Shorties Unite!
Hello 2017!
Cristi is on vacation this week so I thought I would bring a guest host for #90 so we don't miss another week. Hope you love it. My friend Tamela Rich and I kick off Episode 90 with a rundown of fantastic women's and co-ed motorcycle events in 2017 that you should think about attending. We also chat about riding with men v. women; what's different? And of course we have to talk about being Shorties. We share our favorite strategies and tips for riding taller bikes and things to expect in order to increase your skills, gain confidence and kick tall motorcycle ass.
Ep 89 was a little quiet so I bumped the volume up a bit on this one. Hope it's not too loud.
