Background

Cristy Lee was born in Florida’s Daytona Beach on October 21, 1977. Her parents are Jean and Barry MacCoy. Her father, Barry, worked as a mechanic and owned a small shop. He took Lee on what would be her first motorbike ride. Barry is, therefore, credited for Lee’s inclination towards motorbikes and automobiles.

Growing up, she was very athletic and played several sports like volleyball and soccer. During her high school years, Lee was also a member of a female soccer team. She continued being interested in motorcycles and learned more about them from her father. After she finished her high school education, Lee attended a college in Central Florida, graduating after four years with a bachelor’s degree.

When she was 18, Lee purchased her motorcycle. At this time, she worked along with her father in his garage. Soon after, Lee decided to move out of her hometown and kickstart a career in television. She auditioned for several television roles as a host. Then, she bagged the role of a host of the popular reality television show All Girls Garage, which followed three women working at an automotive shop. This program aimed to showcase that women are as skilled with automobiles as their male counterparts, and its contestants, including Lee, proved the point without a doubt. She also garnered popularity as the reporter of NBC’s show TORC: The Off-Road Championship. Today, she has hundreds of thousands of admirers on social media who strive to become like her.
