🔸 While still in their 20s, sisters Augusta and Adeline Van Buren were the first women to travel from New York to California on solo motorcycles. (They were the second and third women to drive motorcycles across the continental U.S.). In 1916, the Van Buren sisters each rode a solo motorcycle 5,500 miles in 60 days across the continental U.S. According to the Women in Exploration website (cited below): “The Van Buren sisters set out to prove to their country that women were capable of serving in the military as dispatch drivers. They also hoped to remove one of the primary arguments for denying women the right to vote. The Van Buren’s ride was successful, but their applications to be military dispatch riders were rejected. However, both women went on to pursue careers. Adeline achieved a law degree from New York University and Augusta became a pilot and flew in Amelia Earhart’s Ninety-Nines, an international organization dedicated to creating a supportive environment and opportunities for female aviators.“ #victorianchaps #motorcycles #pioneers #crosscountry #edwardian #vintage #oldphoto #retro #1910s #goodolddays #nostalgia #pastlives #history #vanburen https://www.instagram.com/p/CnM-1dFjLaU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
