I wish her only the best....Pretty sure she's never bought gas for a Valkyrie on a long road trip burning up the super slab no 40 to 75 miles per gallon on the fat girl .I did a limited search and found a older picture with her on a Beemer...I hope she makes a full recovery she's a fighter and she rides .

She says she has been "riding and racing motorcycles for over 20 years".  Sounds like she has been racing dirt bikes and also riding on the street.

I hope she makes a full recovery and gets back out on the road in the wind...
I also pray that the other wounded get back to a normal life asap...

Prayers to her, all the wounded and to the families who lost loved ones.  Even to the family of the guy who did the shooting.  They are hurting, too.

This June on Motorcycle National Ride to Work Day, June 15th.

All Cages should be banned from our roads for 1 hour.

Say like at 2pm in the afternoon, in rememberance of all cage caused motorcycle deaths and awareness

of the Motorcyclist.


As awareness training for them.

The Slogan I am pushing is  " Look Twice Save a Life " Motorcycles are everywhere.

I hope she is able to pursue her hobbies.

If not, life is still good just sipping on a good cup of Coffee.

She is indeed a rider. I recall she rode with our ALR once.
 We VOTE! Then complain and bitch and moan, or celebrate and bitch and moan.
American politics is not a contact sport. She is a beautiful vibrant young lady.
Didja know she's only 40? My prayers go to all involved and touched by this horrific tragedy.
I pray for the perpretrator too, just in a different way.

I hear shes making great progress, sitting up moving both her legs, they are talking about removing her breathing tube.

thoughts and prayers for all the victims.

I hope they stick it to the freak that did this

Wow, I’d vote for her in a heart beat, over some other female politicians!! 

It’s sad that things like this happen.  What’s sadder is the politicians that try to take advantage of the situation. 

Hope she makes a 100% recovery and rides again!!
