Personal History
Hi! My name is Aiden James Gilliam and I am 9 years old. I live in Ft. Worth, Tx with my mom, step dad, and 2 little brothers. I am in the 3rd grade at Blue Haze Elementary. My favorite sport is motocross, but I also enjoy football, basketball, and baseball. I love hanging out with my friends and playing pokemon!
I have been riding motocross since I was 3 years old. I was given a Yamaha TTR 50 for my first dirt-bike. I rode occasionally and just for fun. When my family and I moved back to Texas I began riding more often. Just recently, I received a KTM 65 for my 9th birthday. I have picked up very quickly on my new bike. I entered my first race, April 1, 2017. My class ( beginners 65-85) was combined with 110's due to not having enough ppl. I ended up placing 9th out of 13! I have plans to continue entering races at least once a month and can not wait to see where this journey takes me. I have found that motocross is what truly makes me happy and I am willing to commit most/to all time to this sport.
MOTO IS LIFE!
Riding Goals
My riding goals are to continue beating myself. I have a end of the year goal to enter in my first MX race series and place in the top 5.
Competitive Highlights
I entered my first MX race on April 1st, 2017, where I ended up placing 9th out of 13. This was a special achievement for me because I was racing along side with 85cc's and 110cc's.
