Personal History
My name is Erika Pérez Sánchez and 'I LOVE MOTOCROSS'
I was born in Villahermosa, Tabasco, Mexico on January 18, 1991. My family is integrated by 5 people: my parents Catalina and Eduardo, and my two younger brothers, who also practice motocross, Carlos and Cesar. I currently study the 7th semester of my degree on International trade at the "Universidad Autónoma de Guadalajara, Campus Tabasco.
Riding Goals
About 4 years ago I started practicing motocross after seeing my brothers doing it. It is an sport that I love and although I've been out for a while due to personal issues, This year 2012 I was fully dedicated to the national championship and I am the champion of the girls' category in southern Mexico, and the women's national champion 2012.
I got the 6th place in the Olympics even after a crash that i had in the last race.
I was also selected in the 4th position to represent my country in the Latinamerican Championship
Competitive Highlights
I started practicing motocross as a hobby cause I though it was interesting but now it became my lifestyle and this year (2012), after following the national championship got the title of champion of Mexico in the Women class. I also had the opportunity to participate in the national Olympics which brought together the best drivers in Mexico. My country gave me the oportunity of being part of the Mexican team in the Latin American Motocross Championship held in my country this 2012, being convened at the fourth position.
I am proud to represent Mexico, and of course of being the champion of motocross in my country.
