Personal History
In march of 2017 thanks to an offer from 828 racing, I started my obsession with supermoto on a borrowed bike 1,100 miles from home with no prior track experience. I ended up taking 3rd place in my class and immediately set up a bike for competition.
Since then i've been a part of the Team 828Racing crew traveling across the country to compete in the SMEC series along with events by OSB Supermoto, NEMM, AMA Supermoto Southeast, Northeast Supermoto and our home MISupermoto series. So far i've done been competitive in the beginner/novice classes and taken 5 podiums, a 3rd place championship finish, and i am currently in 2nd in both SMEC and MIsupermoto championship points for 2018.
While the podium and championship finishes are nice to have, the majority of our time at the track is spent talking with and helping other racers. If you need to barrow a tool, parts, even a motorcycle to race, if we have it then we will do our best to make sure that person get back onto the track.
We also invest in our team, buying pics from the trackside photographers, handing out stickers and koozies, we sell shirts, hats, hoodies, and small parts that we make. The team is always working towards increasing our social media presence through instagram, facebook, and videos that we film both from onboard body cams and drone footage.
Riding Goals
In the coming year i hope to advance and be competitive in the amateur class with both SMEC and MISupermoto. I also plan to compete in the asphalt only class in addition to the supermoto classes. I'm going to continue my training this winter by trail riding, ice racing and indoor mini racing
