Kyle Wyman - The Godfather of Bagger Racing Jun 21, 2023

Show notes

Kyle Wyman has spent the entirety of his career doing whatever he can just to make it to the race track, riding whatever bike he could to yield him the best result and at times make him the most marketable to potential sponsors. After conquering the business of racing - out of a pickup truck to owning his own semi hauler and staffing full time employees, Kyle put it all aside to join the Factory Harley Davidson race team to ride a bagger. Though an early adopter of the bagger vision, his decision would pay off and over the course of the last few years bagger racing has exploded world wide.

We were able to sit with Kyle and discuss the variety of hurdles he faced throughout his career, from family to injuries and the struggles of maxing out credit cards to make it to the next round. We hope you enjoy learning about the guy behind the bagger! Follow Kyle on social media via @kylewyman or @kwr_harley.

Garrett Gerloff - More To Life Than Racing May 24, 2023

Show notes

If you're a fan of motorcycle road racing then it's likely you've heard of the 27 year old Texan by the name of Garrett Gerloff but it's also likely you don't really know him. The two time MotoAmerica Supersport Champion and multi-race Superbike winner left the USA at the end of 2019 with a goal to make it to the top of the sport.

Garrett recently made a switch from Yamaha to BMW for the 2023 season which begins a new chapter for him after facing some very high & low points over the course of his first two seasons - ranging from WSBK podiums to MotoGP wildcards, and even his share of international drama.

We talk through his career thus far, some of the pivotal moments, and especially where he is at now in life on and away from the race track. We hope you enjoy getting to know Garrett as much as we did.
