Personal History
I started riding almost 10 years ago on a KLX110. My goal was to race motocross and I even built a mini track in the small woods behind our house. Once I was comfortable on the bike I took a beginners motocross class at Area 51 motocross track in Batavia, NY. When ever we had a free weekend my dad and I either went to our land near Dundee, NY and rode or went to Rocky Roost motocross park near Watkins Glen, NY. I then moved on to a TTR125 and continued mainly trail riding with a couple hairscrambles mixed in. Then i got a DRZ250 and began building a couple jumps at our land. Recently (May of 2013) I purchased a YZ250F to really begin my dream of racing motocross.
Riding Goals
My goal for this summer (2013) is to begin my motocross career. I already have plans to take another motocross class at Area 51 and possibly have a couple private lessons. Along with practicing at Area , I'm in the process of building a small motocross track at our land where i will spend most of the summer. My long term goal is to continue having fun riding and hopefully make it to more of a professional level.
Competitive Highlights
At the Area 51 motocross class, I received an award for the most improved. At my first hairscramble I finished around mid pack, nothing amazing, but I was stoked because it was my first race. Since then I have raced a couple more hairscrambles but still only managed to finish in the middle.
