Setting this record title has been important to Herrin, who is fueled by organic prepared meal company Fresh n’ Lean.
“For me, winning is more than just a race, it’s also about pushing yourself beyond what you thought was possible. Achieving this Guinness World Records title is next level and it would not have been possible without Fresh n’ Lean,” said Josh Herrin.
A MotoAmerica Superstock and Superbike Champion, Herrin and his team had two trial runs before the successful record-breaking effort on December 4.
“Our congratulations to Josh for taking on this challenge and finding a way to accomplish it. His perseverance is inspiring not only to us and a generation of riders,” said Thomas Asseo, Fresh n’ Lean Co-CEO.
For Herrin, holding his elbow down continuously for 30 meters with an approximate 60 degrees of lean presented a huge challenge that he successfully overcame to achieve this Guinness World Records title.
