Personal History
My name is Addisyn Crane. I'm 5yrs old. I've always wanted a dirt bike. I rode my brothers Polaris 50 atv when I was 3, with him on his dirt bike the quad became mine. I was only 4.5yrs old when I told my parents I wanted a dirt bike. My brother Hayden Crane who competes is the reason I wanted one. Call it sibling rivalry if you will. I remember mom and dad telling me they wouldn't buy me a bike until I could ride my peddle bike without training wheels. It was that moment I told them I want those training wheels off. Off they came, I remember my dad handing me my bike and saying "here you go, you got this sweetheart," with my brother by my side I practiced so hard. I was determined to get this obstacle in life. It wasn't 10 minutes later, there I was peddling like a boss. I remember my brother saying "Lets build a jump!" So we grabbed a 4x4 post wood and a piece of plywood. Here I was, lining up to this jump on princess bike, my brother helped to make sure my princess tiara helmet was tight and ready to go. What could go wrong right, I only learned to ride hours earlier. Off I went, peddling like a mad woman, I remember hitting this jump, to me it felt like I was 20ft in the air. Landing, I looked back and my brother cheering me on.
Lets fast forward a bit. I finally got my dirt bike. Thanks to my dad, he rebuilt it and customized it for me giving me the number 716 for July 16th. I practice 2-3 times a week at our local track riding with the big boys and girls. I also ride around our acerage as much as possible. The support from other riders is over the hill. The lady riders are my biggest influence. Every time I get on my bike I feel freedom and the world is mine.
I have had a saying told to me and its one I will never forget.
DON'T CHASE THE BOYS, PASS THE BOYS. #motochicks

Competitive Highlights
My first race of course. I Turned 5 on July 16, my first race was July 19 in Estevan Saskatchewan Canada. I've never been so nervous, The gate drops and off I go, on a course with big ruts and berms. I powered my little PW50 as hard as I could. I fell many times but just got right back on and kept going. I remember on the last straight away hearing the crowd cheer for me in celebration. My dad ran up to me giving me the biggest hug and seeing his smile I knew he was proud. I asked him how I did. He told me 9th, 9th to me felt like a 1st. I can now say I'm officially a motocross racer.
My career is young but I know it will be long.
