Personal History
In my early years I grew up watching Crusty, Terrafirma, Children of a Metal god n such movies begging my mom for a red dirt bike. Well didn’t wind up happening and got sucked into football the next 14 years of my life n went on to play JUCO ball. Well around the same time I reconnected with my half brother and biological father (who used to race n the one who used to bring me crusty movies) after 14 years. But was retired at the time. And during this time unfortunately we lost my half brother which led to me and pops getting close and gave me his 2008 KLX 450R to me not knowing I had never rode before or any knowledge besides being a fan. I instantly got it running and never looked back. I wound up even dropping out of school and ball because my passions completely changed and all I wanted to do was go ride two wheels. So my pops ultimately decided we needed to get me a 250 n him back on a bike and here we are 2 1/2 - 3 years later and I’ve entered a few races now we’ve ridden almost every state from AZ to South Dakota. I just honestly love to ride my dirt bike n check out new places, terrains, what challenges I can over come, and where my next journey takes me.
Riding Goals
My goal is one day to ride pro and compete in a series whether it’s Desert, GP, Hare n Hound, Motocross, wherever my journey takes me. Next year I plan to get into the Arizona desert scene and race a few of the series that Arizona Cycle Park throws on. My pops used to race the Parker 400 so I want to go race that n claim that one back and definitely plan on making Day In The Dirt my thanksgiving tradition. I also love just free riding n having fun on my dirt bike and the freedom and creativeness behind it all.
Competitive Highlights
So far in my 2 1/2 years on two wheels I have raced DITD and an arena cross race up in South Dakota that I entered last minute during a road trip up there. I was in Utah and my little cousin called saying he entered his first race and I said screw it it’s bout time for my first race sign me up. (thinking it was maybe a outdoors race) Well I didn’t find out till we showed up race day that it was a indoor arena cross race and I had my 2022 Kx250x with a desert tank and really no idea about suspension settings haha. And to make things better in my first race ever I decided to hop up to B class because I wanted to jump the finish line jump n didn’t want to be “sandbagging”. I barely survived but I kept up. And for Day in the Dirt Glen Helen, my second race I got 15/50 and barely made it out onto the track in time cause my bike wouldn’t start due to tight valves, and kept stalling on me on those big down hills, but I had a blast in both races and learned some things about race prep haha, can’t wait for which ones are next in my future.
