Personal History
Hey,
My name is Alex Effertz and I like to ride. I'm 16 years old and race in the 125 B class. This is my first year on a big bike and it has been treating me real nicely. I ride a 2007 Suzuki RM125. That's right; a two-stroke. I love the 125. It makes you a lot more aggressive when you ride, and takes a lot more work to ride one fast. It makes my day when I can beat all the four-strokes and place 1st. I know all the spectators like it, too. Currently, I am leading the 125 B points championship and have a comfortable lead in points.
I'm a good student and am usually on high-honors at the end of the quarter. Off the track I respect everyone and am a real nice guy to talk to.
Riding Goals
Next year I plan to stay in the 125 B class. I may move up to a 250cc two-stroke, because I can tell I am in need of more power. I really want to get another championship, too. We'll play it by year, I suppose.
