WASILLA — Professionals commuting to work with helmet hair and a change of clothes stashed in studded saddlebags, orthopedic surgeons and Wal-Mart freight workers, stay-at-home moms and ladies with leathers over their work clothes — all of them mark a new breed of driver taking to the open roads of Southcentral this spring.
They’re all motorcycle riders motivated by record gas prices to switch to two-wheeled transportation.
