Personal History
IG: riozitro444s
I currently reside just outside of Sacramento California where I have lived for the last 10 years. I am a first responder in the area and have been in my line of work for the last 15 years. I enjoy getting outdoors whenever possible and love to participate in Motocross, Mountain Biking, Hiking, Water activities, etc. I'm a father to two teenage sons, one of which rides and races MX with me on a regular basis.
Riding Goals
I began riding motocross in early 2015. I am an active member of the Over The Hill Gang Motocross Club (Sierra Chapter) in California and am competing regularly in the 38+ Intermediate Class. 2016 was my first full season racing and with the OTHG, and after being promoted from the Novice class mid-season, I was able to close out 2016 as the Champion of the 30+ Intermediate Class with the OTHG.
In 2018 it was necessary for me to take a break from racing after I was diagnosed with a lifelong autoimmune disease which caused my health to decline until a proper treatment plan was established. Now, after several years of not competing, I am ready line up behind the gate once again! In 2024 I plan to compete in OTHG events, AMP/GFI events, REP Racing events, as well as various races throughout northern California. I am always professional on and off the track and I use social media platforms to promote myself and the products I use. I am brand loyal and promote companies who are willing to support me. Rider support is a two way street and I will work hard to ensure my supporters get the recognition they deserve!
