Today's spotlight in this 31 Days of Women in Motorcycling series is Danielle Murdock, a young woman who in December 2006 left behind a desk full of paper, yellow trace, and unique clients to travel the world on a Honda XR 250 motorcycle. Why? To see how other people lived their lives, and to figure out if her style of living was the best it could be. Her unique website and blog, MotoMonkey Adventures, chronicles her journeys from her native New Zealand on a trip from Bangkok to Moscow — a total of 26,869 kilometers, in words and illustrations, and her continued travels today.
March 8, 2011 Episode 535: Tom Lowdermilk and I talk with Danielle Murdock on SideStandUp Motorcycle Radio (We're the last 1/2 hr of the 2 hr show). We'll talk with her again next Tuesday, May 17, 2011, so please tune in!
You can also keep up with Danielle on Facebook.
Danielle received the 2010 'Nancy Bird Walton Sponsorship For Adventurous Woman' from the Australian Geographic Society.
