Default what historical figure

would or should have ridden a motorbike and why.

My vote is for Lady Godiva... if she had then all the peasants could have known when she was coming by the sound of the bike and closed their windows. Then they would have known by the quiet when she was gone and the could open their windows.

Good choice Deacon.

How about Abraham Lincoln? He could have rode two miles each way to return that 2 cents he borrowed.

maybe Marie Antionette (sp) could have kept her head if she had shown a little humility by riding a motor bike.
