De knäna blir inte kul när hon blir äldre. Skapligt med stryk de fått ta.

WONDER WOMAN
🌸

Hiroko Hori (1949–1985) was a trailblazer in Japanese motorsport and is widely celebrated as the nation's first female professional motorcycle racer. Her story began with a simple Honda Super Cub, a modest machine that sparked a passion for two wheels launching her on a ground-breaking career through the 1970s and early 1980s.
In 1976 - at a time when female riders were officially barred from competition in her homeland - Hori shattered gender barriers by participating in a Japanese road race. Her exceptional performance led to a change in regulations, opening the doors for women to take part in Japanese motorsport.
With ambitions beyond the racetrack, Hori also embarked on a 40,000 km journey across 25 countries on a 1975 Honda CB750F, showcasing her adventurous spirit. In 1978, she also co-founded the "Powder Puff" race, Japan's first women-only motorcycle competition, and established "Hirokono" a motorcycle gear shop catering exclusively for female riders.
Among her racing highlights were back-to-back appearances in the 4-hour endurance race at Suzuka Circuit in 1980 and 1981, riding as part of a two rider female team on a 400cc Suzuki twin. Tackling over 200 miles of intense racing, Hori and her co-pilot proved they could compete head-to-head in one of Japan’s toughest motorsport events.
A gifted storyteller as well, Hori chronicled her adventures through books and travelogues. One of her most famous works, “Me and the Sahara and Motorcycle”, details her gruelling 8,000 km trek across the Sahara Desert on a Suzuki DR500.
Tragically, Hori passed away in 1985 while preparing for a new adventure in China's Taklamakan Desert. Her legacy of adventure and freedom is something that all motorcyclists can identify with; and the fact that women are now accepted as part of the fabric of motorcycle racing is testament to her and other pioneering female competitors. A true Wonder Woman...
