“Bonneville’s Women of Land Speed Racing” Ladies. . . .(and some fellows who have helped, or are inclined to. . . ) The dates are set! I will dual-debut “Bonneville’s Women of Land Speed Racing” on the salt and ask all of you to consider joining me for one, or both big bash book signing. 1st: Tuesday, August 31st during the Bonneville Motorcycle Speed Trials 2nd: Saturday, September 11th during the Utah Salt Flats Racing Association’s World of Speed event. At this point in time, I have confirms from about 20 gals for each event, who are wither racing, or coming to the salt just to help inscribe a rather special marker in the historical timeline. Imagine if we could double that! I not only want to see you all there, but I want you to see each other, meet each other, learn about each other and connect with each other — without being enfolded into other duties, responsibilities, or conflicts. When I started this book project, I was certain I could track down about 150 gals in helmets and record books over 70 years. The book went to press with 307 names, but I am still collecting data and names of those left out for whatever reason. The number now exceeds 320 but with much certifying and verifying to do be done. Only those names that can “pass the detail” muster” are included. The point is: when we are all dead 50 years, this book, and the one to come after, will remain a solid reference tool and historical pointer. I am doing this with help from Betty Burkland, Anne Lindsley and Gail Phillips. We are all being welcomed by both event organizations and will have special credentials and perhaps t -shirts… Will we see you there?
