In 2018 four-time AMA National Enduro Champion Terry Cunningham, stunt rider Gary Davis, flat track and road racing tuner Skip Eaken, MotoGP World Champion Nicky Hayden, flat track racer Clifford "Corky" Keener, and pioneering motorcyclist Mary McGee were inducted into the American Motorcyclist Associations Hall of Fame in Pickerington, Ohio.
This is what I, an admirer of this pioneer captured from that special weekend.
"What will Mary's legacy be?"... She stood tough back in the days when many women were not encouraged to be seen as strong and brave... She was a mother - wife and adventure found her and she embraced the moments and exceeded expectations.... She showed that women can raise the bar and do amazing things that were thought to be reserved for men to experience. Here were are decades later - celebrating the addition to the AMA's Hall of Fame a greatly respected and admired shining star for women who live and love the sport of motorcycling... It is because of Mary and others like her that we - motorcycling women - are not asked to audition to ride in order to be included in events and races... Thank You Mary McGee for also sharing your timeless stories that still encourage - inspire and entertain us all.... Dirt Bike Girl Adventures
Thank You AMA for a fantastic weekend surrounded by beautiful motorcycles and celebrating those that ride them and those that have made our sport all that it is and continues to be.
