Default Strippers and Motorcycles

Strippers and motorcycles are always a popular combination, but for the most part, you only see them together for photo shoots and the like. Well that wasn't the case with Patricia Heartwig, a famous burlesque dancer from the 1940's and 50's who also raced motorcycles. Here's a bit of her entertaining life story. There are a lot more pictures of her off the motorcycle, so you'll just have to use your imagination...
