Personal History
My name is Robert Bartholomew, married to Jessica Bartholomew with a son (who races) Grayson and daughter Sophia (she rides). I have been riding and racing since 1995, my uncle got me started racing. I made it to the local pro class from 2004-2007. Attempted to qualify for several nationals back then and won the 250 PRO class Washington state championship series. We currently race mainly off road doing the NORCS and some of the NMA series. I race in the 40+A class and my sn races in the 85AM or 85-150 class. We also train Jiu Jitsu and ride mountain bikes.
Riding Goals
As an older rider/racer. my goals revolve more around me improving technique and fitness and riding to the best of my ability than an actual result. We do try and do 1 race per year outside of the PNW and this years event will be the NGPC series finale in Havasu. I am currently prepping for that putting in some long motos and doing sprints.
Competitive Highlights
2006 Washington state champion- 250 PRO class. 2017 Friday night racing champion 30+, 2022 NORCS 40+A Championship. I would say those are my biggest racing accomplishments along with aquiring my AMA pro racing license back in 2004.
