“When two men made a bet that no woman could encircle the globe on her wheel, Annie took up the challenge. She left Boston in full skirts on a 42 pound Columbia bicycle. She cycled through Europe and North Africa and went on to the South Pacific before returning to the United States via San Francisco.”
