    An excellent interview!

    She is riding (not trailering) her bike from New Jersey to Daytona this year for bike week. I think it is 1100 miles and she is 84 years old!

    She had some comments about all you riders who want to put your bike on a trailer but we will leave those off camera :).

    I'm glad we were able to interview her.

    Should we work on doing a series of interviews with her ?

    Hats Off to 2wheeltips for portraying women motorcyclists as just that, WOMEN! Gloria, you are a class act and an inspiration to me. Thanks for being yourself and sharing with us your many stories!!

    Tweety, CW, claypot, O-Ren and everyone else who loved this interview:
    It means a LOT to me that you all enjoyed and appreciated this interview with Gloria Struck. She was a rarity in her early riding days. Now, there are many more women riders out on the roads. But Gloria is a real class act and getting a chance to interview her was one of the most inspirational experiences of my life! Glad you all seem to feel similarly!

    Thank you so much for posting this video! I am proud to say I am a fellow Motor Maid and look forward to meeting Gloria real soon. She is an inspiration. I can relate to "thinking about riding to South Dakota for all of about 30 seconds" before saying SURE. Praise God for Women like my mom, Gloria Austin, and Gloria Struck and all the Motor Maids I know who help to inspire women like me. Exceptional video...I will come back to when feeling a little down. (:
