Personal History
My name is Michael McGary
Motocro ss racing is my passion. Most extreme sports are apealing to me. Also, I like to wakeboard and moutainbike and hang out with my friends. I started riding dirt bikes when I was 11 when my dad (an X professional motocross racer from the last 70’s) finally gave in and bought my brother and me dirt bikes for Christmas of ’03. I spent the first few years practicing and learning the skills and the correct riding techniques at many different motocross tracks throughout Florida and some out of state.The skills I have learned are now being put to the test and so far so good.
I am now 16 and have more say in choosing which of my parent’s house I want to stay with so I am now free to Race all events for a complete series. This finally gives me the chance to have what I wanted for a long time.
Riding Goals
I have decided to race the Youth Class and 125C. The series I have chosen to race this season is the FTR MX series. I like this for many reasons but the best part is that it goes to 9 different tracks throughout Florida of which most I have ridden. Also, I have selected a few other races that do not conflict with the FTR Series and I intend to race the Loretta Lynn’s area qualifier in my first attempt to get to the Ranch.
My first Goal is to get top 5 in the FTR Series and secondly to take my first attempt to qualify for Loretta’s. Thirdly my long term is to get to go pro. But if that does not work out I will continue racing and go to college and hopefully I will be able to land a job with a motocross related company. Either way, I’m winning.
