Personal History
Lets see, Im 41 years old,a painter by trade but have been a bike mechanic for a long time.I have ridden motorcycles my whole life,sport,dirt,cruisers,mini's whatever.
I decided this year to go racing in the vintage class with a 2000 Yamaha yz 250,and have started running the 250c and open 250 class as well.This was mostly due to the AMA class structure changes really.The 2-stroke aint dead yet in the right hands they are still competative and much cheaper to maintain.
Riding Goals
My goals for this year is too ride some races looking to build experiance and confidence on a limited schedule.Next year I plan to ride a full schedule with several series regionally also.I think a new bike is in the works also,but Im still going to ride the Yamaha in vintage class.
I think what Im looking for this year in sponsorship is the company's that have been a part of racing forever and especially those still making parts and accesories for the 2-stroke.
The new bike next year will be a four stroke,but a new 2 stroke also isnt out of the question at this point.
