In 2007 I qualified for Walton Trans Can and finished 19th overall in the 65 7-11 class. In 2008 I didn't finish the season due to a broken arm.
During the last three summers I went to MX SCHOOL.COM which is motocross training facility in Brigden Canada.One of the main instructers here is Justin Thompson.During the summer I worked for Justin Thompson at his motocross centre, Shady Oaks,and for MX SCHOOLS at thier tracks. I preformed track maintenance ,grass cutting,and helped with the junior riders at the school.
My mom and dad had a track built for me by JET TRAX so that I can practice when ever I have spare time.
Riding Goals
This season my main goal is to quallify for Walton the Canadian championship and to finish in the top half of the field.I'm riding in the 85 12-16 class, the super mini class, and the school boy class this season.
