Personal History
I bought my first bike when I was 9 thanks to many mowed lawns. It was an XR100 and the rest is history. I don't know why I wanted to ride so badly, but I felt like I needed it. I started racing on a CR80 and moved up to the B class, then I hopped on a YZ125 and then a YZ250f and marked out of the B class into the A class, unfortunately I was never able to race a pro race. I had a string of severe injuries including 3rd degree burns, broken femur, and a shattered foot to name a few. My last injury was the broken femur and it happened the day before my first pro race. I felt like the sport I was so passionate about just cheated on me. That was 2005 and I have not raced since...until this year. 2013 is my year. It took a long time for me to realize, but I cant live happily without dirt bikes and mx in my life. I just bought a new KX450F and cannot wait to start bangin bars again.
Riding Goals
Long term I would love to get paid to ride my dirt bike, whether its racing mx, enduro, free riding, testing new bikes for companies, whatever. I belong on two wheels.
Short term I want to get back into the scene and make a name for myself again.
