    I just came across an article (in Polish) about tattoos being the new fashionable way of decorating one's body for American ladies: 'Kalejdoskop' magazine, March 1926.

    Motorcycle girls

    Just to revive the topic, I hope the ladies of the Lounge won't mind if I share the story of one of the early female Polish bikers and truly incredible woman Maria Wardasówna. Born on the 5th of July in 1907 as a daughter of a farmer in the village Roztropice, Maria was a strong-minded...
