Rider Updates

Moved up to a faster line for the rest of the season. Factory Backing was great about shipping the new backgrounds out real quick to put on the bike - looks awesome as always! Outside of a rough first lap with a few wipeouts on the mountain track in NY, the rest of the race went great. My laps were on pace with the faster guys, just need to clean up the first lap. I'm excited about running with the older, faster kids and looking forward to getting better and better each race! Finished 16 out of 30.

Great race today - despite a bad start. Worked my way up to 3rd for a couple laps, but finished 5th out of 28 riders! It was a hot day on a fast, bumpy, dusty track - I was thankful for the breathable gear and protectives, and my bike still looks fresh! Thanks to FLy Racing, Leatt, and Factory Backing for your support! Time to practice my dead-engine starts!

Today's race was not as good as i was hoping for, my bike would not start at the line and i got in the middle of a pile up in the first lap. I got up quick but only got 12th place

Yesterday's race went really well - finished 7th in class out of 26 riders. It was my first ride with the rekluse clutch, so I wasn't feeling very confident or even looking at top-10 before the race, but quickly adjusted to the new control and endurance that it provided in the sloppy conditions. Looking forward to more training and Round 2, so excited! Now to clean the bike and gear - thanks Fly Racing, Leatt Brace, and Factory Backing!

Disappointed in yesterday's race - had some clutch issues and had to pull off the track. Parts are on the way and I'm looking forward to redeeming myself next week.

Finally some warmer weather for a training session - rode some tight trail systems for about 3 hours today. Felt great to get on the bike after all the snow! Thanks to Fly Racing, ProTaper, and Leatt for the gear and bike products. And the bike looks fresh with the graphics from Factory Backing! Thanks for the support, looking forward to a great season - one week to go!
