Personal History
My name is Ryan Simmons. I am 39 years old, and my lifetime passion is dirt bikes. In my first time back on the track since my early 20's, I raced the full 2024 North Carolina Harescramble Association (NCHSA) season in the Vet-C class, finishing 2nd in the championship.
I had minor success racing A class harescrambles and GNCC as a child/teen, but life and family came fast, putting my racing dreams on the back burner. My family enjoys mountain biking as a hobby but as a single father, I’ve decided it is time to show my two children what dedication and perseverance in one's passion looks like while I still can.
Riding Goals
For the 2025 NCHSA season I will be racing a (currently stickerless) 2024 YZ250X in Vet B 30+ and would love to work with your company in support of both our goals—winning! We plan to attend select Mid-East Harescramble Series events as well as at least one GNCC Racing afternoon event for 2025 as well.
My 9-year-old daughter, 12-year-old son, and my father (without whom this endeavor would be near impossible) will be camping with me at the tracks for most, if not all, of the 14 rounds of the series. As a family, we represent the values of training, commitment, resilience, and teamwork—qualities that I know the moto community as well as your company stand behind. Your graphics would not only look great on our (used but clean) toy hauler, but they would also represent the strength of family involvement in the sport.
Action cam race footage will be uploaded to my YouTube Channel @dirtndadjokes as well as highlights on all socials.
I appreciate your time and consideration.
All the best,
Ryan
