Rider Updates
Jun 11 2018
So 4 years passed like a blink of an eye. I think last time I posted I had one daughter. Now I have two! My oldest is 6 my youngest is 4. What a lot of fun it has been. My job keeps me from riding dirt as much as i would like. I take the family to motocross events because my wife and I love the sport. My kids love going to the races and watching. My youngest is a little fearless and loves riding on the gas tank with dad. (she wears a helmet of course) Motocross has always been a huge part of my life, and I hope to keep it a part of my daughter's lives. I have used this site for many many years, and it has helped multiple times when my budget is going towards family stuff, but dad still needs some parts here and there! Thanks MX Sponsor!

It has been a while since I posted an update. The majority of the summer I have been consumed with work. I have been working as a K-9 handler for about 6-7 years now. This side of my job keeps me really busy. Aside from that, my daughter is now 3. She is super busy, and keeps me busy as well. I have ridden a little, but not as much as I would like. My work schedule keeps changing, but looks as if it has settled now. I actually have one weekend day off now! looking forward to spending some Sundays at the track with the family. Now the rain has started. I guess if this is winter I can start the winter makeover for next year. Also adding to my already busy life, I am going to put my Harley up for sale. The reason for this is to hopefully use the money for a down payment for a motocross graphic/jersey print/vinyl sign/banner/print company I want to purchase. Hopefully I can not only be a racer, but involved in helping other racers through coaching, and helping other racer's bikes and jerseys looking prime every weekend!

Two weeks ago I separated my shoulder pretty bad. Go figure its the same shoulder I have had surgery on before. I was third gear through the whoop section and my rebound was a little too fast causing me to take a bad swap. Landed helmet/shoulder first into the lip of the next whoop. Put me down and out. Going back to the Dr. today hoping for the best. I want to get back on the bike!!!

Raced this last week at E Street MX again for round 3 of the REP Spring Series. did ok, took a 4th overall. desperately need to get my suspension done! Really affected my cornering this last week! nothing like knowing you are faster than the guy in front of you, but you are fighting the bike twice as hard. hopefully will have everything done within the next couple weeks, and will be ready for the next round come April 6th.

REP Racing round 2 was cancelled due to weather. Such a bummer I was looking forward to racing the Hangtown track. Next round back in the sand at E street again.

Went to Hangtown National yesterday to ride the track. The weather held up for me for a while, then started to ran around 1pm. Rode from 9am-1pm. There were some seriously muddy corners, but overall it wasn't bad. Hangtown is one of those tracks where it is going to teach you something no matter what the conditions. This is outdoors baby! Round 2 here we come REP Racing Spring Series!

Raced my first race yesterday in a long time. Pretty much the third time I have ridden the new bike. Track was in good shape, physically I was in good shape, but mentally I have to build back some confidence. It has been a while and I expected so much more of myself. Need to remember to just have fun.

Heading to E St. MX on wednesday for practice. If you see me out there come say Hi! I am excited to finally ride a track with the new bike. I still have a lot of work to do with this thing! The bike isn't quite ready. I am too impatient and I want to go ride! lol

Rode Mammoth Bar yesterday. What a long day. Worked grave yard from 7pm-7am, went home and slept for around 4 hours then loaded up and went to practice. Also riding on wrist sprain. Again, long day. Found out I have some things I need to work on with the new bike. Still a very stiff ride. I think I got the mapping figured out for now, but I'm sure I will be fine tuning again soon!

Hollister was fun. Liked camping out there with the family. It was my daughter's first camping trip! and of course it involved riding! lots of fun. although it affirmed that I am not a huge fan of the trails. I spent majority of my time on the jump track just playing around. none the less it was a great trip! Next ride will be sunday the 26th of January at Mammoth bar OHV. see you there!!

So I have been working on a little project in my garage for about a week. It has been a while since I have been to the track to burn some gas through a carburetor. Well, now I will be burning gas through a fuel injection. I recently purchased a 2014 yz 250f. I have yet to ride it at the track, because I have been getting it prepped with new graphics, and customizing the wheels, and getting my new jersey ready. It is an all new year, and will be an all new me! look forward to seeing you out there!
