Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge is an endurance ride that takes participants across the United States. Riding 20 hours a day or more for 7-12 days straight, they traverse back roads, brave dangerous conditions and battle mental and physical exhaustion. Fewer than 10 percent of participants are women. They take on the challenge and they excel! Chronicling the journeys of 14 women who participated in the Hoka Hey (Lakota for "Let's do it!") from 2010 to 2013, this feminist cultural analysis relates their often harrowing stories of life on the road and draws comparisons to women in other sports.
Download or read book Solitary Without the Confinement written by Steve Briscoe and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2015-01-27 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challengean annual endurance ride exceeding eight thousand miles. Those who step out and accept the challenge are a very small percentage of the riding community. Some who attempt it do not succeed. Hoka Hey is a call to action and is an Oglala Lakota Native American Indian term that translates to Its a good day to die. That doesnt mean those who ride the Challenge are eager to die. What it does mean is that those who ride should live lives of honor, integrity, compassion, and respect so if they fall in battle, they will leave a positive legacy to family and friends. The majority of this book spans twelve days, but in reality, it spans a lifetime of failures, accomplishments, regrets, desires, and fears. I took this Challenge to prove something to myself, but what I discovered was something I did not know was lost.
