Motorcycle World Records

Jose Manuel Martin Molina grips the handlebars of a parked red 125cc sport motorcycle in Ayamonte, Spain, walks his feet high up the wall behind it and presses himself down toward the bars and back up 22 times. The 63 second clip is one continuous take, from setting up beside the bike to wheeling it away afterwards, with his feet on the wall for the whole set. RecordSetter counted the presses from the footage, each one bending his elbows and finishing on straight arms, and the count backs up all 22. Think of it as an upside-down push-up with a motorcycle for a bench.

Ashley McIntyre has ridden her own motorcycle across the United States both ways: border to border from the Mexican line at Santa Teresa, New Mexico, to the Canadian border in Saskatchewan in July 2025, and coast to coast from the Atlantic surf at Jacksonville, Florida, to the water's edge in San Diego, California, from July 19 to 23, 2026. She was 15 years old when she finished the coast-to-coast ride on her CFMOTO 300SS sport bike, with her father, Tracy, riding alongside on his own motorcycle. Each crossing is verified by video from its starting line to its finish, and each also stands as its own RecordSetter record. A three-time national roadracing champion who started riding at age five, Ashley crossed the country on both axes at an age when most of her classmates were still waiting on a driver's license.

Tracy and Ashley McIntyre completed a coast-to-coast motorcycle ride across the United States in 104 hours and 52 minutes, traveling from Jacksonville, Florida, to San Diego, California, between July 19 and 23, 2026. Each rode a separate motorcycle: Ashley on a CFMOTO 300SS and Tracy on a CFMOTO 800NK. Their journey video follows the father-daughter pair from the Florida beach through roadside stops across the southern United States to the water's edge in San Diego. The trip continued a family tradition: Tracy completed a RecordSetter-recognized coast-to-coast ride with his son Mathew and father Gene in 2010.

On November 3, 2024, Tracy McIntyre and his daughter Ashley, then 13, won national motorcycle roadracing championships on the same day: two titles for Tracy and three for Ashley. The video pairs their awards-night photos, with Tracy holding two 2024 Lifan Cup National Championship trophies and Ashley holding hers in front of the Lifan Cup backdrop. Roadracing is motorcycle racing on paved circuits, and for the McIntyres it runs in the family: Tracy holds RecordSetter records from his own racing career, and Ashley has ridden a motorcycle across America from Mexico to Canada.

On July 16, 2025, Ashley McIntyre — 14 years and 53 days old — set out from the Mexico-U.S. border crossing in Santa Teresa, New Mexico on her CFMOTO 300SS, riding north through Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, and Montana before crossing into Canada at Morgan Station, Saskatchewan. The 1,500-mile journey took approximately 56 hours, making Ashley the youngest person to complete a border-to-border motorcycle ride across America. Ashley, whose father Tracy McIntyre owns Moto El Paso, has been riding motorcycles since age five and is also a three-time national motorcycle roadracing champion.

Tracy McIntyre took only 83 days between obtaining his motorcycle road-racing license and winning a national road-racing championship.

Tracy McIntyre won his first National Motorcycle Road Racing Championship at 30 years of age and his second championship at 58 years of age, a time gap difference of 27 years and 10 months.
