Starting in 1893, Sears began publishing a catalog to market the company’s watches and jewelry.

She took her learner’s permit on it, rode it daily the six miles from home to the Oconomowoc High School and back, and still has the machine. At 12, her first legitimate on/off road machine was a Honda XL100. By nine, she was racing Class C flat track aboard a Yamaha YZ125. The officer didn’t give her too much trouble, just asked her not to do it again.
“I was the youngest of six kids and spent so much time tagging along with my brothers,” she explains, and adds, “we all had bikes.”Īt the tender age of seven, she got pulled over by the police for riding her Honda through a subdivision. By the time she was four years old, she’d learned to walk, play hockey, and ride a Honda 50. Jennifer is a self-described farm kid from Wisconsin. That’s not why she didn’t know what to do with the bike there were other reasons, and we’ll get to them soon. It wasn’t that Jennifer was a stranger to motorcycles.
