Personal History
Hi my name is Patrick. I am twenty two years old and have lived in Nashville,TN my whole life. When I first started riding I started out on a Suzuki 50, moved up to a Honda Cr125 and decided to switch to a Honda 400Ex . I am now currently racing and riding a 2012 Yfz450r which I've had now for at least a year. When I was younger riding wasn't the only thing that took up my free time, I also played baseball, football and basketball. I played football at Tennessee State University for one year and when that didn't work out I decided I wanted to start racing like I always wanted to. I started racing harescrambles in 2012 and decided that I wanted to switch to Motocross. My first race in Motocross was at Thunder Valley Mx and I pulled 2nd place. After that I continued racing the Big Show Series which is mainly held at Fast Farms Mx and Christiana Mx. Racing Motocross can be pretty tough at times but I get through it with the support of my family, girlfriend, friends, and the love of our Lord and Savior. My family is a big part of my life I have 1 older sister, 2 younger sisters, and 1 younger brother. My dad is my main supporter he helps me fix and buy anything that I may need for the race season. Church has always been a huge part of our life, we attend church almost every Sunday, attend church events, and try a spread the word of the Lord as much as we can. Even though working at Nissan may take up a lot of my time I still manage to get plenty seat time. I am a very hard worker and go out on race day with a good clear mind and focus on the race. I may not win every race but that gives me drive to go out the next race and push 10 times harder.
