Golden girl racing with the guys in Arenacross

Vicki Golden wasn't looking to make history. She was just bored, wanted something to do during the break in the women's motocross season.

She ended up doing both.

One of the top up-and-coming riders in women's motocross, Golden has broken boys-only boundaries by becoming the first female rider to compete full-time on the Arenacross circuit.

OK, so maybe it isn't Danica Patrick winning an IndyCar race or Annika Sorenstam teeing it up on the PGA Tour. It's still a pretty significant step in a sport that's historically been known as a men's club.Story:
