For Yager, it has reignited the passion that drives his dedication to bringing new blood to the sport. Together, the pair is blazing a trail for female riders to follow into the exciting world of adventure riding.

Just two months after purchasing her first motorbike, Joann was involved in an accident that resulted in a broken collarbone.
