In the 1930s, Dorothy “Dot” Robinson (1912–1999) regularly challenged male competitors in endurance and sidecar races, and during the Second World War, rode as a military dispatch rider with a select group of women. Riding her famous pink Harley-Davidson after the war, Dot Robinson was considered the “First Lady of Motorcycling” and acted as longtime president of the Motor Maids, motorcycling’s first and most prestigious club for women.
