Podcast 615: Life In The Fast Lane with Misti Hurst

Motorcycles & Misfits

Misti Hurst is a masterclass columnist for Motorcycle Mojo Magazine (Canada) and Adventure Bike Rider Magazine (UK), where she has built a long-standing reputation for insightful, in-depth writing on motorcycle technique, travel, and adventure. Over two decades, she has written more than 250 articles, curating a vast body of work that now forms the foundation of her upcoming five-book series, Life in the Fast Lane. The first volume captures her experiences as a California Superbike School (CSS) coach, offering a deep dive into high-performance riding techniques and the lessons learned from training riders worldwide. She was one of the few women to compete professionally in AMA Supersport and Formula Extreme and made history in 2008 as the first female to qualify and race in the 600 Supersport class at Daytona International Raceway. As a pioneer in the sport, Misti has dedicated her career to breaking barriers for women in motorcycling and action sports. She actively mentors and inspires the next generation of female riders, including her teenage daughter, while coaching her son, Ashton Parker, and other young motorcycle racers. She is deeply committed to fostering confidence and skill in girls and women through her coaching, writing, and speaking. Beyond the racetrack, Misti is a PMBIA Level 1-certified mountain bike coach, guiding riders on North Vancouver’s world-renowned trails. She also has worked with some of North America's fastest young motorcycle racers, including the late Peter Lenz, which also gives her first-hand experience of tragedy in sport and has heavily influenced her writing, speaking and coaching endeavours.
