Personal History
Since I was three years old I have been riding dirt bikes and quads. As a family we started riding quads at the sand dunes in Oregon state when I was five years old. Then when I was about nine years old we sold our quads and went two wheels only! I have been trail riding locally since I was 10 years old with my dad and friends. This past year, my dad built a dirt bike trail on our property and I became obsessed with riding. All I want to do is ride, my friends with dirt bikes came over and rode with me too. One of my friends asked me to go to the MX track with his family this year and I signed up for a practice to ride on the track. Once I did that one practice I have been back every week. I tried a race in May and I loved it. Now all I want to do is practice and race.
Riding Goals
Of course I want to get faster in general. But more specifically I want to get better at knowing when to shift, and railing the outside burms. I am working on improving my second gear gate starts and luckily my dad can help me with that in our yard.
Competitive Highlights
- My first race I placed fifth overall out of 15 kids.
- My second race I placed third overall and also raced in the 65 open and got third overall.
- Third race, which was a Washington state MX series I placed third overall in the 65 novice class and fourth overall in the 65 open class.
