Rocket Martina: the 5 year old superstar rider

[@MeganKaptein]

Happy New Year, everyone, and thanks so much for taking the time to watch Martina’s story. As you can see, Martina and her coach Luis are dedicated to practicing every day, and this can be quite challenging in Vancouver’s cold and wet winters. If you know of any asphalt lots or covered places such as underground parking in the Tri-Cities area where Martina can practice throughout the winter months, please reach out to Luis via the channels below. Thank you! Martina's Instagram: instagram.com/martina_car... Martina's KZbin Channel: kzbin.info/door/yFB...

Happy New Year Megan. I saw that Noraly “itchy boots” mentioned you in her blog. Keep the content coming and I am sure your channel will grow in 2021.

Happy New Year and thank you for sharing Martina's story ❤ Such joy! Love Love Love 🥰🥰🥰

Hi Megan, neither link works.

Martina hermosa, ya eres una campeona!!! 💪💪💪👏👏😍😍😍

[@Anthony9592]

What a beautiful video..!! Martina is a star already.. God bless you Megan. God bless you Martina..

[@FnLn55]

The bike fits her, and she's fearless!

[@MeganKaptein]

She really is! Such confidence!

[@mythreelife4764]

Ahhh to be young and fearless.she’s proud of her helmet scratches Bump - Bump 👍

[@vishubunty]

Her driving skill 👏 in this age and the way she speaks just made my day ☺️ She is so cute, full of skill and confidence.

[@ComputerGeekOnTwoWheels]

Wow, Martina Rocks. I remember putting my little girl on a bicycle at the age of 4 but can't imagined on a motorcycle. Yes for sure Martina is gifted with a skillset and passion that can make her a champion if she pursues it. Here in Northern California, I have had teenage girls pass me on Sonoma Raceway and can attest to the fact that women can be champion if only given the opportunity and support. Kudos to her father.

[@johncourt9580]

Hi Megan, I must say I'm watching Martina, in disbelief, at 5 years of age! her control is amazing, imagine her in 10 years time, on a full size bike!, a champion in the making, born to ride! and she's such a happy little girl, full of fun, and just laughs when she falls. Thank you for bringing her to us, she was so entertaining!

[@SantiagoBenavides]

So proud of her and her whole family!!!! Great things coming for this little one!!

[@MeganKaptein]

Couldn't agree more!

[@ignaciopausa2352]

She's an amazing driver!!! A new pink warrior!!! Let's Go Rocket Martina 🙌🙌🙌 Desde Argentina le mando un abrazo enorme a Martina y a su familia por apoyarla en su pasión!!! Y tú Megan eres increíble 🥰🇦🇷🇨🇦

[@jose-mca7]

Cuty and very talented Martina! As a father of 3 big boys I always wanted a princess like her in my family. Now maybe a granddaughter 🤩🤩🤩. Cheering for you, Martina.

[@julymontaner9713]

Great video Megan!!!!!!! Martina you're amazing. I love the way you smile and I can see you love what you're doing. That's the MOST IMPORTANT THING. You're gonna be a huge world class motorcycle star. Congrats.

[@MeganKaptein]

I agree--her smile is so heartwarming!

[@rhonda-my_honda_cb500x3]

00:55 ; "Oh I need my gloves [before I can show you my cool actions]". ATGATT thinking at 5yo... Excellent! What blows me away is how Martina is as comfortable (and quick!) on both road/asphalt and dirt, and how consistently correct her riding stance is for each environment. If my understanding's correct, the genre of her bike is (mini) super-motard which allows for this sort of cross-over. Either way, in a very few short years, it'll be great to watch her tear up the track in a competitive environment be it in super/motocross or moto-GP Happy New Year to you too Megan, and thanks for kicking it off for us by sharing this lovely story about Martina

[@MeganKaptein]

Thank you for watching and supporting Martina's journey. I truly believe she has the star potential, but the best part is just watching how much she absolutely loves to ride.

[@themonk1327]

All the best to Martina, hopefully she continues with her passion.

[@hardwheels]

Amazing ... Unbelievable. Best wishes for Martina 🎉👍

She is really amazing - rides like a pro in her age class. It shows that you're never too young to do things.

[@leotehlion4586]

Indeed it’ll be exciting to see where this little girl goes in the future rippin' on roads with these skills. Amazing.

[@0HARE]

Great kid, with an encouraging and supportive dad. I predict that she will go far. Thanks for another interesting episode.

[@MeganKaptein]

I think so too!

[@WillysPerformanceCycleCtr]

Amazing! Simply amazing! This little girl can or will be a future star! Thanks Megan for sharing her talents with us. She is so lucky to have a father that is able to help her so much. Ride safe!

[@samkhouth967]

Que maravilla! My Martina is muy impresionada. I love to see such passion a young age. Great story and such committed parents. Wonderful.

[@MeganKaptein]

Thanks Sam! It was truly such a pleasure to watch Martina in her element. I couldn’t wipe the huge grin off my face.

[@hugestudiosdenver]

What an amazing rider !!! Little Martina has awesome skills ! Thanks for sharing !

[@brpo1]

Marquez fan already... Next Moto 3 champ in 12 years.

[@bsmukler]

What a great video! I feel that we are seeing a future MotoGP star (or whatever she wants to be and do) in the making.

[@MeganKaptein]

She definitely has what it takes!

[@travelinben1966]

I feel strongly,she could be a championship racer one day if she so chooses.This has to be one of the most heartwarming videos I've seen in quite some time.She's adorable,and her dad must be so very proud of her.If it were me, I'd have a heart attack every time she had a spill! Thank you, Megan,for this video.It definitely tugged at my heart strings.

[@MeganKaptein]

Thank you, Brian!

[@r0bv123]

Wow such a joy to watch and listen to her! Great smile and enthusiasm, can't wait to see how she progresses. I'm sure her father and family is very proud of her as I would if she were my own! Delightful to watch! Thanks for sharing on the new young generation to come.

[@MeganKaptein]

There is no doubt about it: Martina’s family is fully committed to her enjoyment, safety and success. That dynamic was as beautiful to witness as Martina’s riding itself. Thanks for watching, and a very happy new year!

[@KerrisonA]

Well done Martina! You're an inspiration to a Grandmother! 💪🌞🏍️

[@YannFranck]

Wow simply wow

[@will1533]

I like how the "chicken strips" on her tyres are the opposite way around. The middle still has tread, but the edges are flat. :)

[@MeganKaptein]

Exactly!!

[@matthewholmes7597]

[@BlackThor15]

Awww, she's such a little star!!! Riding her motorcycle it looks so natural as walking for many of us. No doubt that we're possibly watching history on the make here, all brought to us by Megan!! Well done and thank you for sharing!! 👍👍

[@MeganKaptein]

Thank you, Andrew!

[@kiwicanuck5459]

I have seen her riding in the tri cities area and i was impressed with her riding. Big congrats to both of them and big thumbs up for her dad. Thanks for the video.

[@The333]

Wow, her body position is super impressive cornering - and she does indeed look a lot like Marquez when he was a child - she definitely has a natural feel for it. Does Dad plan to transition her to a standard clutch/shift bike or stay electric? Interesting dilemma, especially if she has ambitions to race as E-Bikes are definitely going to be the future of racing by the time she is old enough to compete. Very cool feature, Megan.

[@MeganKaptein]

Thank you for watching! He just bought Martina a DRZ 70 actually.

[@martinacardenas2047]

Hi, I agree, e-bikes is the future, and races on electric bikes as well. Maria Herrera races in MotoE. Martina starts to race this year in her “new” DRZ 70, but she will continuing to practice on her Oset MX10.

[@The333]

@@martinacardenas2047 That's awesome - I am sure we will be hearing and seeing a lot if her in the future!

Thanks for watching and supporting Martina’s channel as well, Christoph! When she becomes a champion star, you can say you saw her here first. 😉

Thanks for watching! Martina is such an inspiration to me too.

[@dekrev]

“Bump, Bump and that made me funny” haha - hope I can remember that next time I go down - haha. What an awesome story! Love seeing the passion they have for motorcycles - that’s what it’s all about.
