Personal History
My name is Michael Rivera. I live in Grants, NM so i do a lot of trailriding and race as many local events as i can get to. I ride a KTM 250 XC and am looking forward to the 2012 racing season. I live dirt bikes and i love my sport. Right now i race in the begginer class and am hoping to train enough to effectively race in the novice class. I have raced arenacross and motocross and am looking to enter some off-road/desert races in the 2012 season. I love watching supercross and freestyle and look up to riders like Travis Pastrana and Mike Alessi.
Riding Goals
With winter coming up and a few races under my belt I have realized how important it is to be in good shape. This winter i am planning to get in awesome shape to be ready for the upcoming season. I want to be as competitive and efficient as i can. I also hope to hit as many races as i possible and get as much experience as i can.
Competitive Highlights
I am new to racing and this is my first season so my skills are still in need of some work. However I have a a great work ethic, a can do attitude and i want to be the best that i can possibly be. Motocross is all I eat, sleep, and breath. I live my sport and some people don't understand why i would put myself through so much and risk such great injury to do what I do but I really don't know what else comes close to perfectly railing a corner or finally nailing that jump you've been eyeballing at the track. There just isn't anything like it. This is Motocross and this is my life.
