Personal History
My name is Haven Scott Alford, and I was born on August 11, 2000. I am currently 17 years old and I am homeschooled. I have been riding dirt bikes since I was 5 years old, and racing at 11. It’s in my blood; as they say, since my father raced before me and instilled a passion for riding. I ride almost every weekend either for practice or competing in a race. I’ve raced mostly off road, with the occasional mx race or practice at a local mx track.
