Personal History
I have been racing and riding for 45 years. I was nationally ranked #4 in BMX in the early 80's in NPSA, ABA, and NBL sanctions. I then graduated to MX. I started in 1984 and raced District 29 AMA against Damon Bradshaw, Hank Moree, Todd Adams, and Jim Chester in the 80CC class. I moved up to the Schoolboy class on a 125CC and then moved up to the 250CC class. In 2006 I moved to the all mighty four stroke and never looked back. I raced a 2006 YZ450f then rode a 2008 YZ450f, moved to another 2008 YZ450f, then to a 2009 YZ450f. I took a break from racing to coach my sons football team and basketball teams and thought about racing all the time! I decided to take a couple more runs at racing and decided to ride a 2018 KTM 450 SXF which is what Im riding now. My profile says I'm riding a 2017 KTM because 2018 wasn't an option. I'm an ambassador to the sport of Motocross and very involved on the local and regional levels. My son Christian has taken an interest in MX and I now have him racing on a 2014 CRF 150R! He loves it and as Jeremy McGrath said,"I gonna ride till I can't ride anymore!"
