Motorcycle Resurrection
I met my friend Abby at a campground in Ouray Colorado the summer of 2007. My motorcycling buddies and I were on a 7 day Colorado motorcycle tour, and SHE was on a 3 week Cross-country USA tour. We had an evening around the campfire and a morning breakfast with her. Apparently we and the Rocky Mountains made an impression, 8 months later she left the north-east and moved to Colorado. As the 2008 riding season was beginning, she was hit from behind by a delivery van, crunching the back of her Harley and sending her over the bars, injuring both hands. Her Bike has been resurrected with improvements and beautiful dark red fade to darker red paint. We did a session to celebrate her bike back in action. The Look-back photograph is a reminder of the incident, though her hands are still a reminder. Now the riding season is winding down and she just had surgery on her left hand. See her online magazine at Biker Chick Magazine and read her blogs at Biker Chick Blog and Abbey's Cross Country Ride .
