Elena Myers

At only 15 years old, Elena has impressed many with her speed and maturity at such a young age. She started riding and racing at the age of eight, quickly progressing from pocketbikes to mini-bikes to Supermoto bikes with the help of her parents, Anita and Matt. At age 11, Elena raced a 125cc GP bike for the first time and won the race!

In 2006, Elena raced the USGPRU National Series on a 125 with help from Roadracingworld.com and John Ulrich, with classic battles at the front of the field all season long. During the season, Elena caught the attention of Kawasaki marketing managers, and was offered a support program and an opportunity to participate in company PR activities. In 2007, with support from Roadracingworld.com and Kids: Don't Smoke!, she had podium finishes at the Portland and Streets of Willow rounds of the USGPRU National 125GP Series.

Elena's 2008 season culminated with a WERA National win and several podiums on her Roadracing World/Kids: Don't Smoke! sponsored Kawasaki ZX6.

For 2009, the tenth-grader is racing her Roadracingworld.com and Kids: Don't Smoke!-sponsored Kawasaki ZX-6R in AFM, WERA West and select WERA National events with additional support from Pirelli and Bike911.com. She receives professional instruction from Jason Pridmore's STAR Motorcycle School, and has generous support from LE Suspension and Hypercycle. GPR Stabilizer provides the quality steering dampers that keep the wheels in line.. Elena wears Alpinestars riding gear while she relies on the top-notch protection of her Arai helmets.
