Olivia Jardon

I love catching up with our GRT riders! This highlight comes from Olivia Jardon, who has been one of our Leadville staple riders over the past few years.

Olivia gave us a little background into her life and a little insight into what drives her underneath the helmet. Here is a little more on Olivia:

“I was born in and still currently live in Dillon, Colorado and am attending Summit High School as a senior. I plan to attend Regis University in the fall to study nursing. 

Outside of moto, I enjoy skiing and mountain biking. 

Moto has played a huge role in my life because it is something my family and I do together. I started dirt biking when I was six and rode trails. About four years ago, my dad got me my first track bike and I began riding at Leadville MotoPark. I love riding the track because I have learned to set goals and overcome my fears. 

If I could master one skill on my dirt bike it would to improve my cornering.

My best dirt biking moments would be spending time riding my dad and younger sister, meeting new people, and having the opportunity to improve my skills through GRT. 

If I could spend the day with a famous rider it would have to be Jordan Jarvis or Eli Tomac because they are both tenacious and strong riders that I aspire to be like. 

Jordan Jarvis has inspired me by rising to the level in this sport that many have not been able to accomplish. It is awesome to see her race in a male dominated sport.”
