Podcast 255: Elspeth Beard In The House Ya'll!

Podcast 255: Elspeth Beard In The House Ya'll!

This week on our motorcycle podcast we are joined by the one and only Elspeth Beard. She was the first woman to ride around the world, and since releasing her book last year, has become a reluctant idol. Reluctant in the fact that for over 30 years no one knew of her accomplishment, but since sharing her story recently, the world has been showering her with praise. She shares some more stories from her trip, talks about her new found fame, and lets us know if her future plans to make her villa in Italy a motorcycle tour destination. We also discuss some recent problems with spark plugs and alternators, as well as read listener emails and do our best to answer questions. We also draw a winner for this month's Patreon Prize Pack. Congratulations Adam Bambrough! With Liza, Kat P, Douglas, Bex, Bagel, Miss Emma, Elspeth, Michael, Henry, Nak and Isaac.
