1177 - Sheril Kirshenbaum: "In 1894, a Boston man bet anot…" - disabled.social

In 1894, a Boston man bet another $20K that no woman could travel around the world by bicycle. So Annie Cohen Kopchovsky, then penniless, learned to bike & set out to prove him wrong & earn prize money. From 1894-95, she did just that (sailing between continents). Kopchovsky kept her husband & family a secret, using the alias Londonderry. She won $10K for her accomplishment & returned to raise her family. https://jwa.org/thisweek/jun/25/1894/annie-cohen-kopchovsky #HistoryRemix #history
