Personal History
I am a business owner in Sarasota, FL that races as a hobbie. Racing has taken up all of my spare time these past seven years. I can represent racing products better that most racers on my level because I am known to be very relentless, resilient, and tough. My parts and gear get used 150+ hours of hard racing per year, and I wreck more than anyone I know. I have never quit a race due to physicall injury and never carry water racing even in the hot FL sun during six hour enduros. So people know the parts have to be the best and most well made available. I am eager to represent parts and gear that I believe in so that the parent companies success will yield even better products for the future. I am a member of a local club called "Old School Dirt Riders." I also have been doing alot of volunteer work in our series, and writing amendments to our rulebook to allow to the introduction and transition of electric bikes into our sport. This year I have also been regularly writing technical articles that have been published in our Florida Trail Riders member magazine. With our series being the second largest in the U.S., the products I endorse will get much more than a glance when I ride by.
Riding Goals
I want to win Open A in our FTR Enduro series, Evo A in our Hare Scramble Series, and place at least 3rd in Vet A in our Hare Scramble series. I would also like to win the Overall Ironman again at the Perry Mountain 24 Hour Challenge.
