Music
- Hallogallo from Neu!, basically one of the best songs there is.
Notes
- There is a lot written about Bessie, including some wonderful children's books. The best thing I read about her was in Ann Farrar (a journalist and biker herself)'s book Hear Me Roar: Women, Motorcycles, and the Rapture of the Road.
