Personal History
My name is Eric Hanson, I am 23 years old and live in palmdale california. I am currently a full time college student pursuing my degree in mechanical engineering. My hobbies including backpacking, hiking and rock climbing. My passion is motorcycles and enjoy riding a motorcycle over anything else. I was lucky enough to return to both riding and racing in the 2016 season and also take the national hare and hound amateur open title. I participated in many different race styles and formats and really found what i enjoy riding.
Riding Goals
My racing goals for 2017 include moving up to the pro 250 class and competing for the national hare and hound title in the following year. I want to be top 10 overall at the enduros i enter including last dog standing. My training and riding has progressed greatly through the 2016 season and feel very strong going into the next season. I would also like to compete in endurocross for 2017 and will be racing the final round of this year.
