Life in a van isn’t as glamorous as it sounds...and it doesn’t sound very glamorous to begin with. But it’s the life of lots of racers including our own Man in a Van with a Plan Hayden Gillim.

Fortunately for Hayden, he's young enough that he can still live off of double western bacon cheeseburgers and milkshakes but at some point, even he gets full from eating one too many Slim Jims and he has to find some way to entertain himself. While you or I might play road games or count signs or something, Hayden's tactic is much more Kentucky: he pulls over, pulls the Suzuki VanVan 200 out of the van, and rips wheelies until he's hungry enough to get some more snacks and burn through some more miles.

When you're traveling across the country for MotoAmerica races, life can get downright lonely on the road... so, what does Hayden Gillim do to cheer himself up? Break out the Van Van! Find out how he did at Rd 5 in Utah right here: http://cycleworld.co/e13och #ManVanPlan
