When I was younger, I was called a &#8220;tomboy&#8221; because of my penchant for sports, cars and gunplay (probably not helped by my short haircut in grade 4).<\/p>\n<p>In short, I stood out from the crowd with my attitude and taste. Later, when I got my driver&#8217;s license, I quickly discovered a passion for the car world. From the mounted Civic to the Audi that was &#8221; racing &#8220;, I drove through the gears with a smile on my face and the wind in my hair.<\/p>\n<p>Today, I still love beautiful sports cars, but for everyday life and to carry my dog on my outings, I equipped myself with an SUV. So I quickly needed an alternative to compensate for my desire for excitement and I turned to motorcycles!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I&#8217;ve always found it impressive to see a woman on a bike! It&#8217;s beautiful, it exudes confidence and power!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I decided to take my license at the 2018 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salonmotoquebec.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Quebec City Motorcycle Show<\/a>. I had to say I was tired of riding backseat with my boyfriend. Let&#8217;s just say that doing 2\/3 hour rides on the back of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.suzuki.ca\/fr\/produit\/2021-gsxr1000r\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GSX-R 1000<\/a>, there&#8217;s enough to get sick of!<\/p>\n<p>He eventually switched to a Harley, but the seat didn&#8217;t get any better (I almost missed the takeoff once at a gas station.

When it was time to choose my first motorcycle, I looked on the internet to see what was recommended in terms of weight, power, handling and size.<\/p>\n<p>I immediately fell in love with the <a href=\"https:\/\/scramblerducati.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ducati Scrambler<\/a>.

Really good people!<\/p>\n<p>With my boyfriend and our friends, we can go for a ride and discover the regions as well as settle down at a spot and practice some stunt tricks.
