The 2009 Female Mechanics Calendar is available now!

Order online or find a location: www.sarahlyon.com
Cost: $20

Included in the 14-month calendar are automobile, motorcycle, hot rod, hybrid, marine, jet aircraft, bicycle, and race car mechanics from around the United States. There is an extended bio section with descriptions of how each mechanic got into her field. The third in a series, the calendar also has a "centerfold" featuring images of all 45 mechanics photographed during three years of working on the project.

This summer I traveled to both coasts, north, and south of my home in Louisville, Kentucky. Destinations included California, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, Michigan, Georgia, New York, Arizona, Indiana, and Kentucky. I rode my motorcycle to Wisconsin where I camped for three days at the Road America racetrack, photographing Tess Gape, a Ferrari mechanic for a team in the American Le Mans race series. Tess is featured on the cover of the calendar. Then I traveled with the bike on a ferry across Lake Michigan, en route to New York City, to meet with a motorcycle, bicycle, and fireboat engineer there. Riding in the city was a challenge; my fairing gained a few more cracks due to bumpy roads and dodging taxis. Throughout the journey I slept on many couches, camped, and stayed at cheap motels in small towns. Once again, I met so many inspiring people. I feel that the 2009 calendar is especially strong, building on three years of experience documenting mechanics in a wide variety of situations.

There are two upcoming calendar release parties, one in Louisville at The Green Building on December 6th, and one in San Francisco on December 13. Read more about the SF event at Luscious Garage here.

Thanks for your continued support!

Sincerely,
Sarah

I have the 2 previous ones and like them alot. Nothing to do with the centrefold/pinup females one could expect to find in mechanics' workshops - no wenches but wrenches (and to be honest, most of them look just as good) :silly:
