    In this off-road edition of The Motovation Podcast, we’re joined by Richelle Trelenberg, founder of True Grit Moto—a mobile motorcycle mechanic service based in British Columbia known for wrenching with skill and serious style.

    This episode is anything but structured. With the usual roadmap tossed out the window, Krissy, Laurie, and Richelle take an unfiltered ride through random questions, hilarious detours, and spontaneous storytelling. No serious themes here—just big laughs, genuine connection, and the kind of chaos that makes for a damn good time.
