A fitting woman to mark International Woman's Day. Great to see she's been honored.
She might have a piazza now but I've been naming my bikes after her for years. I'm up to Alfonsina V now.Correlation is not causation.0 -
Ah thanks TWH, this was a great story. Nice that they've remembered her in that way.0
