Personal History
I've been riding dirtbikes since I was 8 years old. But riding for me has definitely had its ups and downs. Like I said, I got my first bike when I was 8 and absolutely fell in love with riding and the sport of motorcross. But my parents didn't feel the same I rode the same POS 1998 pw80 till it eventually became a pit bike for me and after years and years of begging and saving my pennies I finally step up to the yz80(Yeaaaa big boy stuff) at the age of 13. I rode the hell out of that bike for quite some time till I eventually got hurt, and behind my back my parents sold my bike and told me it was to dangerous of a sport. So with my dirtbike gone and me just getting into high school, I started ofcourse partying and spending more time trying to get the girls rather than focusing on my real dreams(riding). It took me till I graduated to wake up and get back out there, so with the $1400 I got from graduation I got a 2003 yz125 and started really gettin back into it. I never raced, I was mainly into freeriding and hittin ramps, and that I though was my forte. Then that bike finally ran its course, blew up and I didn't know how to fix it. I then took a couple months off from riding till I saved up enough money for a new bike. I then got a 1999 cr 250 while I was attending school at MMI in Orlando, FL and had an awesome spot that we could ride everyday, I loved it. once I graduated school I got home back to Ohio was riding here and there and eventually blew that bike up too. I didn't feel like fixing it so I sold it and pretty much put riding on the back burner for about a year. now after that year I finally bought a 2013 yz450f and have been on my A game ever since, in the gym training 6 days week and riding as much as I possibly can. I feel good, I feel consistent, and I feel like my program is the best its ever been. me and one of the other techs I work with have been doing a lot of research and work on making sure I have a very good and successful season this year and put my self at a top A rider level and hopefully make it to the pros!
