Default model turned stunta

Chesca combines being a 'streetbike freestyler rider' with modelling and singing - in between generating and maintaining a loyal internet fan base.
She makes her solo debut at Santa Pod Raceway in Northamptonshire this Sunday.

Staines-based Chesca started riding bikes at 14 and was an experienced rider by the time she was old enough to hold a licence. She now rides an adapted 600cc Honda.
It took her longer to win over male colleagues than it did to pick up the basics, though.

Multi-tasker: Chesca practices her stunts three times a week but also models and sings
She told the Evening Standard: 'It’s been tough. The boys resent the fact that I am woman who can ride a bike as well as or better than them.
'I love being on the catwalk and in front of the camera but not as much as being on a bike.
'Stunt work is not just about high-speed chases, it’s also about control, balance and mastery of the machine.'
Fortunately for her modeling career, Chesca's worst injury so far has been a broken toe when she was hit by a runaway go-kart at a show. But she says she feels safer when she's on two wheels than in a car.
She said: 'Being a stunt girl means that you are a much safer rider on the roads — but then it’s all the other motorists you have to worry about.'
Chesca practises three days a week and hopes to start film stunt work this year.
The multi-tasker is also somehow managing to fit working on her first album into her busy schedule.
