Personal History
I am 12 years old and Love to Ride. I had planned on a big year in 2013 but unfortunately broke my arm just before the Queensland titles then on my come back for the Australian Titles I broke my collar bone needing surgery. I am finishing 2013 with recovery and ride time to come back hard and fast for the 2014 Race Year.
In 2014 I have a few changes starting high school and stepping up to the bigger bikes KTM 85 Large Wheel and the KTM 125 classes.
When not riding my Dirt Bike I am always on the go BMX, Scooter, Skateboarding and every sport I can play at school. I am out going and love to have fun.
Riding Goals
Plans for 2014 Racing Calendar
Plan to compete in the 2014 Queenlsand Titles and go to Appin NSW for the Autralian titles though this year I will now be competing in the 85 Large wheel Class and 125 class. I also plan to compete in the 2014 Shell Series and SEQ Series again and come home with the win. Time for me to step up and plan on a great 2014 to make up for my injuries in 2013. ( that’s motocross!)
Bring on 2014 I am ready to RACE!!!!!!
Competitive Highlights
My first year racing nationally in 2012 I went from C grade to A grade on my 65cc having been graded to B and winning outright I then got graded straight to A grade.
Also had a great year on my 85cc going straight up to B grade. ( unfortunately couldn't compete for grading in 2013 due to injury)
On Club level I race A grade in both classes and come away winning most Race Days.
My Overall Summary
Up until 2011 I had only done club meets.
Had a start at the 2012 Queensland Shell Series on my 65 & 85
Started the round off with bike troubles over the series. I have been racing a 2007 Ktm 65 and a 2005 Yamaha YZ85.
It was a bit intimidating at first but I soon go the hang of it and had a blast. Even with blowing up the 65 in a race I placed 12th overall and after blowing up the 85 in two rounds I still finished 13th overall.
I then did the 2012 SEQ series. Started the round in C grade even with the bike seazing in the first round (so dad bought me a new 2013 KTM 65cc) I finished 8th and was graded up to B grade because my lap times very competitive. I won every round of the 65 cc B grade races and finshed First overall for the series. By the end of the 5 round Seq series I am now graded A on my 65 cc Ktm. Not a bad effort for my first year at national levels.
I also ran the 85cc YZ in the Seq rounds placing 4th overall for the rounds in B grade. I plan to be graded up to A next year on this bike too. At the moment I am still racing the 2005 Yamaha Yz 85.
As of the 26th January 2013 I am now running with a KTM 85 2013 and KTM 65 2013 looking forward to the new race year on my new bikes.
Plans for 2013 Racing Calendar (changed due to injury)
For the upcoming year I plan to go to Horsham Victoria and have a shot at the Aussie Titles and race with the best Australia has to offer on both the 65 and 85 cc classes. My aim is to Win but would like to place in the top 5 on both bikes.
I also intend to do the 2013 Shell Series, the Queensland Titles in Townsville and the Seq series again as I had so much fun and enjoyed the competion.
Unfortunately these plans came unhinged when I broke both bones in my left arm just before the Queensland titles knocking me out for this year then on my come back for the Australian Titles I shattered my collar bone requiring surgery to repair. I was devastated.
My Biggest Highlight for 2013 is training with my coach Dan Reardon one of Australia's great Motocrossers and I can't wait to get back on the track with Dan to continue guiding me.
