One of her grandkids is named Mad Max.

Hey, you know what's badass?

Grandmothers who compete in BMX races are badass.
A heavy crash during the final day of the NSW State BMX Titles at Coffs Harbour has denied Buxton grandmother Irene Markee, 56, a NSW BMX title.
Man, she was riding hard enough to suffer a "heavy crash"? That's badass!
"I don't recall too much of the incident, only the fact that I was leading heading into the opening corner before contact was made and from there I don't remember anything," Markee said.
Markee later added, "Any smart-mouthed bloggers who are tempted to make cracks about memory loss and old people will suffer my wrath. I'm badass!"
The Macarthur BMX Club member is sidelined until she recovers from the injuries she sustained during her fall and will miss the Blue Mountains Open.

"There isn't a whole lot of damage, only a few bumps and bruises, but I'm taking the next month off as a precautionary measure as the crash really knocked me about," she said.

With her recent form giving her a confidence boost, she plans to compete in next year's Australian titles in South Australia.
I wish there was one word that could really sum up this story. That would be neat.
