Episode 33 – Lana Tsurikova Trains for GS Trophy

Kathy, Jess, and Audra met with a special guest, Lana Tsurikova, who told us the fabulous story of her driving and riding path starting from a small girl to a national Autocross Champion. Now she is looking to conquer the GS Trophy|BMW Motorrad competition in a motorcycle. 

We talked about:

  • The value of taking instructors.
  • If you are contemplating going to Nationals, do not wait until you think you have a chance to win. Just do it for the experience.
  • Value of autocross in daily life and in training for the motorcycle competition.
  • The intensive training needed to prepare for the GS Trophy (off-road challenges on a 550-pound bike).
  • Women in motorsports.
  • How Lana wants to help educate and empower the younger generations.
