The Cycling Eight

Awesome story from the good old internet about eight pretty radical teenage girls from Michigan who went on a multi-day bike trip in 1940. Produced by Heather Andrews.

"In those days, girl's just didn't do those kinds of things! We didn't know anyone else who had done it, we just decided to do it!"
