Personal History
I'm 20 years old and I've been riding dirtbikes since I was 9. I've been racing on and off since I was 12 but I've only been racing harescrambles since 2005. The past couple years I didn't take racing too seriously and only raced enough events to get promoted to the A class. I wasn't in the best shape and fooled around too much but in the races I competed in and finished I either placed 1st or 2nd. In 2007 I planned on racing the entire year with goals of winning the A Open championship and getting promoted to AA. Instead I ended up only being able to race 3 races due to injury and non-race related issues. I had one decent finish in my first A race placing second, but two races later I injured myself and had to sit out almost the entire season. Since the season ended last year I have been training non-stop and I'm looking forward to 2008.
Riding Goals
I would like to win the A Open and A Overall Championship and get promoted to AA but those goals really depend on how many races I attend this year. So really my main goal this year is to race every Hare Scramble and get the finishes I know I'm capable of. I'm confident that if I attend every race I should make AA for 2009.
Competitive Highlights
I really have no highlights up to this year. Last year was suppose to be my first serious and competitive year but as I said in the About Me section, I barely raced. The only race I am proud of was my second place in my first A race. It wasn't because I finished 2nd either it was because I came around the scorers 6th overall on the first lap and realized I really did have the speed to compete with the other A and AA riders. I eventually froze up but still came around to finish 18th Overall.
