Hello, how are you today? Sandi's contemplating the different forms of travel which enable the feeling of freedom. 

When you think of the advent of things such as the  bicycle and motorcar, these modes of transport gave women the kind of independent options never known to them before. 

Many women not only embraced these new machines, but used them to the full; breaking records in travel and pioneering new technologies including sat nav and indicators. 

As usual though, these female forerunners are hardly even mentioned when recounting such developments, let alone celebrated. Thank goodness for Sandi.
