In 1929, Vivian Bales rode her 1929 HarleyDavidson for 78 days and 5,000 miles across the country. She told the papers her motorcycle was a “key to the whole United States.

Vivian Bales was the first motorcycle cover girl and was known for several long distance motorcycle rides around the US, (before most of the roads were paved) in the 1920s and 1930s.

That is quite a feat, especially on the roads, tires and machines of the day!!!
