Jackie and Bobbie’s Solo Ride: Setting Records and Inspiring Change

Led by CAKE US Sales Manager Jackie Rosenstein and supported by Friend of CAKE Bobbie Long, this solo ride serves as a powerful example of the potential for emission-free motorcycling. Departing from the CAKE site in New York City, they traversed the iconic Route 66, concluding their journey at CAKE’s LA site in Marina Del Rey.

Stefan Ytterborn’s Vision for Inclusiveness and Sustainability

CAKE’s Founder and CEO, Stefan Ytterborn, emphasizes that “The Electric Conquest of Continents” goes beyond showcasing the capabilities of electric motorcycles; it represents a movement towards inclusiveness and sustainability in motorcycling. He expresses gratitude for Jackie and Bobbie’s contribution, following in the footsteps of Sinje Gottwald, and their role in inspiring countless others.

Jackie and Bobbie: Pioneers and Record-Breakers

Jackie Rosenstein and Bobbie Long, passionate motorcycle enthusiasts, achieved a remarkable feat by becoming the first female duo to ride electric motorcycles across North America. Their expedition showcased CAKE’s commitment to pioneering technology and eco-friendliness, pushing the limits of electric motorcycles through diverse landscapes and climates.

Continued Inspiration from Sinje Gottwald’s Adventure

The Electric Conquest of Continents project draws continuous inspiration from Sinje Gottwald, whose solo journey through Africa on a CAKE bike unveiled the diversity of cultures, languages, and the potential of electric motorcycling technology. Sinje’s adventure not only pushed technological boundaries but also made a positive impact on society.
