Personal History
I'm sixteen and a local Mountain Bike rider from the Mornington Peninsula. I've been riding MTB for the last 4 years and looking back I wish I started sooner, I started racing when I was 14 in a couple of cross country races and in the last year i've been focusing more on downhill and enduro. I ride simply because I enjoy it, it's my passion as well as it being a great way to keep my fitness up and see my mates.
I ride everyday in between school and work, as well as every weekend, i try to mix up my rides and where I do them for example I could do tempo rides one day and then do downhill shuttles the next this all overall helping me with my fitness and my mountain bike riding.
Along with my own riding an racing I also coach both junior (ages 12-14) and senior (ages 15-17) years cycling as part of my work, I've been working hard on creating not only programs for these kids to follow but also teaching them varois skills on the bike like how to jump, corner, go up and down stairs, as well as many more other important skills.
My racing in the last couple of years has only gotten better. Last year (2019) was my best year, I placed first in all four races of the vic cross country school series in my section allowing my school team to take the overall win of the season. I also competed in the redhill gravity enduro, where I came 3rd in my section and I the got opportunity to be apart of a womans team the was sponsored by one of the local cycling shops.
