WHERE ARE YOU RIDING FROM? Los Angeles,CA
WHAT DO YOU CURRENTLY RIDE? Bonneville , TRIUMPH
HOW DID YOU GET INTO MOTORCYCLES?
Influenced by my father, I felt this urge inside me that I needed to make my own adventure and not live on someone else’s pictures hahaha!
BEST RIDING TRIP YOU'VE BEEN ON:
Omg, so many. My favorite ride so far was to New England from Washington DC. I was taken back by the beautiful White Mountain Summit the whole time I was riding I thought I was dreaming (someone pinch me!!). Countless twisties, backroads, so many little towns with amazing people. I got stormed on at Kancamagus Highway and I almost crashed because of the pouring rain while downhill twisties in between these gigantic Mountains . So Kancamagus highway will always have a special part of me.
DREAM PLACE TO RIDE:
The forbidden fruit Medellin Columbia. I’ve heard how dangerous it is especially for a female but this won’t stop me!! I’ve heard some great stories about countless twisties , dramatic scenic route and the roads are in great conditions. The options from Medellin,Colombia are too many from historic sites, amazon jungle, plantations,volcanos , indian ruins , beaches and amazing people.
WHAT ARE YOU MOST LOOKING FORWARD TO AT BABES RIDE OUT UK?
To laugh our TITS out!! (Kiki said) hahaha! For me, it is the journey that I’m looking forward to being outside of my comfort zone is usually where I find excitement and solace. Meeting new people, new scenery, different riding because UK will be right hand lane , oh god I can’t wait! I actually don’t have any expectations I’m just going to let it surprise me!! And hopefully there are no cactus around our camp because if there is? I am doomed with Kiki!!
