Personal History
Hi everyone, my name is Ed Salas. I’m a former US Army Paratrooper that now gets his thrills riding and racing MX at my local so cal tracks. I grew up in San Diego and have been in love with two wheels since I can remember. I’ve recently started competing in MX races at my local tracks, Pala and Glen Helen. After doing a bit of road racing at Willow Springs Raceway in 2010-2011, I still had the bug to compete so I picked up a used dirt bike and signed up for some racing. I was doing a lot of riding during the week and weekends to get back up to the same level of comfort I had when I left riding dirt 8 years ago. I’ve had a couple of races now and I’m really happy with my progress and results. It’s been an awesome experience getting back to where it all began for me. I have met a great group of riders that meet up weekly for practice and great times at the track. I’m looking forward to my progression in the sport, meeting new people and finding some more speed! Good luck out there! Be safe!
Riding Goals
I'd like to participate in the TWMX series next year so I'm planning on keeping up with my weekly practice sessions and racing at the tracks that participate in the series. I have taken several road racing schools that were very beneficial so I would also like to pursue some type of MX coaching or class in the near future.
