Personal History
Luke is currently in the 3rd grade. I started riding a Suz JR50 when I was 4 yrs old. I quickly moved to a KTM 50 Mini when I started racing. Last year I got a KTM 50SX and raced the KTM for the 2013 season. I finished 2nd in the JR Pee Wee Class CRA District. I had 23 events, 23 podiums & 20 overall wins. Recently we switched to the 2013 Cobra CX50 Jr for the 2014 racing season. I love it!! I'm hitting jumps higher & some doubles now. My parents try to take me every weekend to indoor practice Saturday's and Sunday's in Butler PA during winter months. I'm feeling really good on this bike and cannot wait for the race season. I just got a King Cobra in October 2014 and will be racing this in the open class and once I'm finished with my racing season on the Cobra Jr I will be racing the King Cobra for 2015 and race 65 class. 2016 I'm racing Cobra bikes in all my 50 classes & 65 classes. Cobra made me an Elite rider in April 2016.
I recently became a KTM Orange Brigade Team Rider for 2017 on the 65 SX. I cannot wait to start my racing season. I'm so excited and headed to Daytona RCSX in March. Braap!
Thank you to all my sponsors along the way and to my family. Racing is awesome!!
Riding Goals
I hope to race and finish in the top 3 as much as possible. I will be practicing as much as I can indoors because of weather & outdoors when the weather permits for us to travel down south. I'll also be working with Gene Stull as my trainer & mentor.
