Personal History
My name is Matt, I'm 17 years old and I started riding dirtbikes in August of 2011. I started racing in in 2012. I am home schooled and as part of my school lesson I was able to be an apprentice at a local customizing and performance shop that a family friend owned in our town. I started in the shop by cleaning the shop, engine parts and the bikes before the owners would pick them up. For 4 years I worked at the shop and learned to rebuild carbuerators, engines and wiring, how to design and build custom frames, handlebars and parts fabrication. After the shop relocated out of state my parents let me start buying junked dirtbikes to rebuild and sell and that's how I, and the rest of my family started riding dirtbikes. I currently ride a 2005 yz250f. . I want to eventually go to one of the motorcycle tech schools and have my own shop and have a long racing career.
Riding Goals
This year I want to continue learning about mechanics of modern dirtbikes.
