Personal History
My name is Luke. I recently graduated from a college university in Grand Rapids Michigan called Grand Valley State University. While attending Grand Valley I got my undergraduate in Computer Information Systems and ran Division II track and field as a short sprinter. I then accepted a position as a software developer at General Motors in Austin Texas at the GM IT Innovation Center.
Riding dirt bikes allows me to be me, it is something I always wanted to be good at. Growing up I never had the chance to enjoy the sport. However, now that I am 23 and have my own place 1200 miles away from my family. Motocross is ALL I do. When I am not at work I am either on the bike, working on the bike, or cross training for better bike fitness. I have always been an athlete but this is another level and adds my favorite drug to the mix. Adrenaline.
Riding Goals
My goal with motocross is simple. To be the best rider I can be, in all aspects of the sport but with an emphasis on track riding.
Id like to race a full season this year and see where that takes me moving forward.
My short term goal is to work up from the Novice class to the Intermediate class and qualify for Lorettas.
