Personal History
I starting riding in 1971, with my Dad on a Honda Trial 70, I was 9 years old. My First Race was the DRA California City GP in 1976 which I finished. I raced a 77, 79 Yamaha 125 YZD &F Models in DRA, SRA, CRC, D-37 until the end of 1979 having earned 39c as a Novice Rider.
After a 24 year break I came to motorcycles with my 4 year old son Dario. I had my first D-37 comeback race in 2004 (Lost Coyotes Euro Scrambles, 2nd Place, Senior Beg.) Since then I have ridden 30 to 40 races a year for the last 10 years competing in the Senior and Magnum Classes.
In 2006 my 3 1/2 year old son Markko started riding with us, both of my sons race as well.
I Ride Conservatively and I'm Having a Blast!
For 2015 I will be aboard a 2019 KTM 450 SX-F Factory Edition.
Special Thanks to: OC KTM, ESP, Specialized Coatings, Avik and The DRC.
