Personal History
I'm Patrick Manfredi. I am 15 and a sophomore at Rancho Cucamonga High School, where I am an honors student with a 3.9 GPA. I have been riding dirt bikes since I was 5 years old. My family jokes that my growth chart is my progression on Kawasakis...from a 65 to an 85 to a 100, and finally to a 250. I just completed my first year of racing in the Big 6 series. I finished in 2nd place in the LWT1 beginner category and in 4th place in the WCGP beginner category. I feel that I improved and learned so much from each race, and I am really looking forward to racing the NCGP Big 6 series this year! As a family our favorite thing to do is to camp and ride dirt bikes, and we do this as often as possible. I love the feeling of being on my bike and riding, and pushing myself to go faster and jump higher. I also truly enjoy riding at the track and try to get there a few times a month. Honestly, if I could, I would spend all of my time riding!
Riding Goals
This is my first year racing and competing in the Grand Prix Circuit. With each race I have continued to improve my skills and positions. My goals are to continue to improve and place higher. Once I have a bit more experience I would like to compete in the WORCS circuit, and someday, the Road to Mammoth.
Competitive Highlights
So far this race season I have completed every race I have competed in. I have been in a variety of situations from desert, to enduro, to rain and cold and mud. to heat and lots of dust. I have improved my standings and lap times steadily.
