Personal History
As a 19 year old, freshman in college I have taken up the new sport of Cross Country motorcycle racing. I have always grown up in watching nascar and playing football from a young age, but have always wanted to race. I bought my first dirt bike in July of 2019 and started racing towards the end of the season in September. 2 of my close friends race locally as well and they talked me into it since I am still in shape from playing football for 12 years. They have helped me build my bike to woods racing specks and have also helped me start my next seasons build. I love to build these bikes just as much as I do racing and it is a great way to pass time to destress from school and work.
Riding Goals
My goals for this upcoming season of local xc races in the spring is to be competitive and finish top 10 in class every race. I have been working out in the gym 4-5 times a week to gain the muscle and endurance to be competitive in this demanding sport of cross country endurance racing. I would also like to have a few sponsors that would back me up when being parts and accessories etc, for the 2020 race season since I pay for everything out of my pocket.
Competitive Highlights
Since I am still new to the sport of XC racing my accomplishments this season was finishing races. Once the finishes started coming along then I moved to positions and I started finishing about half or higher in overall scoring in which I am very proud of considering I am doing that with only 3 races under my belt.
