Personal History
My name is Devin Watson, I am 33 years old from Talent, Oregon. I started racing in 1996 with my brother. We raced together until the mid 2000’s when he decided to give it up due to injuries. I have raced all over the country following the AMA Outdoor Nationals, the (formally) PJ1 Arenacross Series, The WORCS Series, AMA Western Harescrambles, Loretta Lynn’s, the 4-Stroke Nationals and so many more series across the country as well as overseas. This lifestyle has been such a blessing and has truly made me who I am today, not just as a racer but also in many personal aspects of my life. I am grateful for the thousands and thousands of miles and hours I have been able to spend with my family and friends and I am looking forward to many more in the future.
Riding Goals
These days my goal is always to have the most fun possible! I mean honestly the goal is always to win but you have to be able to enjoy every day just the same or you are doing it all wrong. In 2019 I do not plan on following any one series in its entirety but rather hitting some bucket list races and the ones I have the most fun at. On top of all the local races I would like to try to race a few rounds of the new Amateur SX races, the 125 All-Star races and also head back East to race some GNCC.
