Honda Gold Wing

On Episode 22 of the Bore and Stoke Podcast, we sit down with none other than Kayla Yaakov — the first woman to stand on the podium at the Daytona 200. From racing at a young age to climbing through the ranks of Junior Cup, Twins Cup, and now Supersport in the MotoAmerica paddock, Kayla has quickly built a reputation as one of the toughest competitors on track. In this episode, we talk about: • The moment she realized she could podium at the Daytona 200 • Racing in the MotoAmerica paddock • Mentors and riders who helped shape her career • Coming up through Junior Cup and Twins Cup • Racing internationally • What Kayla's like away from the track • What the future holds for one of America’s most promising young racers If you’re a fan of motorcycle racing and just want to hear one of America's rising stars walk you through her process, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
