Personal History
Hi , my name is Jake and I am 6 years old . I have been riding Moto x bikes since I was 3 years old . My Uncle used to ride in the 80's and early 90's so he has been training me.
i started riding a quad bike at 2.5 years old and I got my first Moto x bike for my 3rd birthday - it was a Honda 50 . I know ride a KTM 50 SX mini . I love it.
We have a circuit track across the road from home that I train at nearly everyday. I have completed Moto x skills courses with the Moss Institute and also have had private coaching lessons with Matt Moss - who I look up to greatly.
I started competiting this year at club level in the division 1 50cc and I'm doing ok.
I just love to ride , a teacher at school asked me why I ride Moto x and my reply was - it makes me feel good.
I think about Moto x all the time. At night before bed I watch the professional riders race - like Dungy , Moss , Villopoto on my iPad . I'm watching and learning all the time.
I like to go and watch the professionals ride at the Motocross championships and to see all the action in the Pits. Hopefully that will be me one day.
I also have been practicing Karate ( Shotokan ) since I was 3 years old, I am currently a yellow belt but I have grading next week and I'm hoping to go up to Orange tip belt. Karate helps with my motocross fitness - it keeps me fit and flexible. I train two days a week , and I also compete in the All Star Karate Competition in both Kata and Kumite.
I told my mum this is what I want to do when I grow up - I want to be a professional Moto x rider. I know it takes a lot of hard work to get there but I know I can do it, I will be trying my heart out.
I couldn't type all this out by myself so my mum is helping me type on this website page but all of this is my words and how I feel about Motocross, Mum is just typing what I say.
Thank you.
