We asked on the girls bmx spot facebook what you girls wanted to see more of, the clear winner was personal experiences so I asked Lindsay Hale, one of the newest members to the 'YeahZine' crew top tell us a bit about her adventures traveling with her bike over the years shes been riding

Orem, Utah
riding since 2007? I think...

Places Travelled with your bike? Travelled all over the US, Australia, Germany, Switzerland, England, Scotland

So many great experiences, mostly for me it's the people I get to meet and ride with. They are always so motivating, and cool to ride with.

Worst experience?haha, worst experience, few of those, getting my bike stolen in NYC, which actually had an amazing outcome in the end. Another bad thing is when you are travelling for the sake of riding, you ride at times you shouldn't. I had a minor injury that would've healed fine, had I taken a few days off, but I rode with it anyway and ended up breaking a bone in my hand, not a major break, but took me about a month of downtime to get back on my bike.

Tips or suggestions for when travelling with your bike? would suggest to those of you who want to travel with your bike, make sure you are stoked to be in that location regardless of riding or not, if it's a long trip and you get hurt, you better be able to do other things or you will go mad. It's easiest to travel alone, just because you can pick up and go anytime it suits you, but if you have someone to go with, that could be fun too. Pack light, and enjoy!

You recently visted Australia, how was it?Australia was amazing, great people, great parks, great food, great street, pretty much great all around. Can't say enough to express how wonderful Australia is. You are so lucky to live there:)

Favorite place in Aus?Canberra was my favorite place to ride in australia, so many great parks. i loved Weston, Five dock in Sydney, and the Cairns skatepark was unreal. I need to go ride Woden, it was under construction when I was there.

When are you coming back?Gosh, I want to get back there asap, I want to ride in Melbourne for sure. Unfortunately it'll be while. I've got plans to be in Portugal next fall, we'll see if it happens or not.
