Personal History
I started MX later in life. I started at the age of 27 and have been riding ever since. I am now 31 years old and currently ride in the +30B and +25B classes. I recently moved up from C to B about 3 weeks ago. I rode in my first Amateur race at Unadilla in August 2011, and finished 3rd in the +30C class. I currently ride a 2009 CRF450r.
I am married to my wife Jamie, who is a big support system for me. She is my photos and video side kick, who captures all of the latest races for me! We currently live in West Bloomfield, NY and race in 2 local series in the Upstate NY areas. We started the sport with a small utility trailer and have since moved onto a toy hauler, and thoroughly LOVE the sport and the family we have created!
I currently work full time as a sales manager for a local car dealership and have been doing that now for the past 5 years. I have always been in the car business since graduating high school and college, and have had experience working in 3 different stores throughout my career.
In my spare time, other than riding, I enjoy hunting, fishing, and downhill skiing.
Riding Goals
Some of my goals for the upcoming 2012 year are....
1. Consistently place top 5 in both +30B and +25B classes
2. Race the Unadilla Amateur race in August 2012 and perhaps catch another Amateur race on the 2012 Pro MX tour.
3. Place top 3 in our local series for Spring, Summer and Fall.
