This episode of Twist the Throttle takes us far beyond the open road and deep into the inner battles so many face in silence.Kimmi Taylor grew up surrounded by dysfunction, abuse, and instability — a childhood that forced her to become a carer long before she was ready. By 15, she’d left home. By 16, she was homeless. By 17, she’d already survived more than most will in a lifetime.But this isn’t a story of pain — it’s a story of fight. Of rebuilding. Of refusing to stay broken.Kimmi shares how she turned trauma into awareness, addiction into purpose, and fear into love. From surviving multiple assaults and living on the streets to finding love, raising four children, and facing down complex PTSD — this conversation is an unfiltered look at survival, healing, and the strength that comes when you finally stop running from your past and start owning it.This one’s raw, real, and beautifully human.

In this powerful and deeply human episode of Twist the Throttle, we sit down with Sinead “Casper” to explore a story of survival, resilience, and purpose.Born in Ireland and shaped by a turbulent childhood, Casper opens up about the pain and strength that defined her journey — from enduring trauma and finding her voice in court, to raising a family and helping others heal through community work.Alongside Ox, she shares how motorcycles, love, and the Bikers Against Child Abuse (B.A.C.A.) brotherhood became tools for recovery, empowerment, and protecting the innocent. Their story is raw, emotional, and inspiring — a testament to how two riders found healing in the saddle and strength in each other.
