2021 Bison Track Sponsored Rider, Ryan Gaulding

Location: Belton, MO

Nickname(s): DrunknHealer

Favorite Track: Heartland Park...for now...

How did you get into motorcycles? Always loved corners in cars and decided to try bikes, fell in love. After my neck injury I couldn't do sports cars anymore but I could ride sport bikes still!

Why do you ride? At the track it's a stress reliever and the freedom to challenge myself at something I love. On the street...well bike gets better mileage than the truck.

Career Highlight: My first dry track day I was moved from Novice to Intermediate after the second session.

Favorite Bike to Ride: '19 ZX10R for track and my '16 BMW S1kRR for the street!

How do you prepare to go on the track? By failing horribly to sleep because I'm too excited!

Goals for 2021: My goals for 2021 are to hit Advanced at Heartland Park, travel to all the tracks in my region at least once, and get my race license at the end of the season so I can setup to hopefully do an endurance race in 2022!

Why do you choose Bison Track? I chose Bison Track for my leathers because they were the best price vs features I could find. I've got long arms and legs on a skinny body and always have issues finding things that fit me right. When you can get a full custom made to fit suit for the same price or less than a generic one...well that's a no brainer for me!
