Mikayla Parton was one of 2020’s breakthrough riders. Mikayla made waves with a 5th place at World Champs which she backed up with two top 10s in Maribor, before sustaining a nasty concussion at the final round in Lousa. Mikalya is a late comer to mountain bikes, so we find out how she’s progressed so fast. Mikayla is super driven and her results really show what you can do when you combine hard work and talent. So sit back, hit play and give this episode with Mikayla Parton a listen.
