Personal History
I'm 27 years old living in Napoleon, MI with my wife and step daughter. I moved here from Silver Creek, NY in 2003. I have been riding a dirt bike all my life but this will only be my second year in competition. I have a practice track in my backyard and live 40 minutes from Log Road. I am taking this season very seriously and hope to do well and stay consistent. I plan on racing the entire fall GLMX series as well as various races through out the summer series.
I do all my own mechanics and setup. I have been around racing as I was a crew chief for A.J. Schmitt racing (CORR series)and a driver in the SCORR series in 06. I know what winning feels like and I want to feel it again!!! I have the drive and determination to take me to the front.
Riding Goals
I will be riding a RMZ 450 this year and I plan on really stepping it up. I previously rode a 96 RM 250 that was constantly in need of repair. It was a great bike, it was just plain worn out. Now I have a brand new bike and it really boosts my confidence level. I just want to see an overall improvement in my results.
Competitive Highlights
10th place out of 30 riders in the Great Lakes GrandPrix. I was running in third place and my bike just quit on a wide open straightaway. Had to fight my way back up while absolutely exhausted.
