Motorbiking gran sells house to see world
Hats off to her............ I wish I could do something similar .......
What would you like to do, but can't afford/pluck up the courage to ????????????????????
A 62-year-old grandmother is selling her house so she can travel the world on her Harley Davidson motorbike.
Sue O'Grady plans to blow every last penny she owns on the road trip of all time, reports the Yorkshire Post.
As she laughed off her family's fears, she said: "They think I'm absolutely crazy - but you only live once, and I'm going to make the best of it while I've got the chance."
"I can travel a long way and see a lot of the world with the proceeds from the sale, and if I can stretch the money out and make it last for eight or 10 years then so much the better."
She added: "I've travelled an awful lot of miles over the last few years, but I'm itching to see the rest of the world now.
"I've virtually done all of Europe already, apart from Russia, but there's the whole of America to explore, and Africa and the Middle East and Australia to look at as well."

Motorcycles are the last things that the health and safety nazis have not legislated to oblivion. Everything else is toned down to the degree of utter boredom.
There is no greater pleasure than being on a motorcycle on the open road. Makes even the most boring schedules exciting.
