MotoBella Vintage was born out of a dirt road and a life shift. Somewhere between the stall-outs and the sage smoke, I remembered who I was. And now? I ride to remind others too

I started Motobella Vintage after falling in love with motorcycling — at 50. (Wait… what??)

As a fresh empty nester facing a major life shift, riding cracked something wide open in me: purpose, freedom, and the thrill of beginning again.

In October 2024, I took the MSF course and, with a nudge from my brother and nephew, bought my first bike — a 2015 Yamaha SR400. Vintage ‘70s vibe. Kick-start only. Fitted with 50/50 enduro tires to tackle the dirt roads around home. Small but mighty — just the challenge I needed.

As my confidence grew, so did my hunger for the open road. More places to ride. More wild to chase.

Motobella was born from that fire — a desire to reclaim a kind of freedom that isn’t sold to us… but rediscovered when we come home to ourselves.

For me, that freedom lives in desert sunsets, canyon curves, and the smell of sage after rain. I’ve crossed landscapes by foot, horse, and car — but now, it’s the motorcycle that carries me back to truth, nature, and essence.

Let's Ride!
