Personal History
My name is Austin Braden and I am 14 years old. I attend Keller High School in Keller, Texas. Motocross is definitely my main sport. I also enjoy skateboarding, snowboarding, football and hanging with friends. After begging for a dirt bike for Christmas, I got my first dirt bike, a 2004 KX85, in December 2006. After a month of riding in a field, I began racing in Burleson, Texas. After an 8th place out of 23 riders, I was hooked. I have always liked anything with a motor so it is no surprise motocross became a passion. The best part of motocross is the racing and making new friends.
