Personal History
The oldest memory i have riding is being about 5 and jumpin on a friends 50cc. A few years later i was maybe 8 or less and my dad purchased a old 250cc 2 stroke. I could ride it but i couldnt stop it so he would catch me lol. After that through the years i got a 96 rm125 and a 07 crf100f. I bounced around free riding moto tracks in the tri state with my friends that raced and fiar races im highschool but never took it seriously i always focused on work. About 2016 i decided to do something for myself after years of adulting and nothing to ride i purchased a brand new left over 2015 yfz250r dirtbike and got back into riding local moto tracks. I made some friends and eventually they all after years of racing made the switch to quads and i was the odd one out. They always begged me to race but i was building my business at the time and couldnt risk the injuries. With the flip of a coin i traded a built 8000 bike for a used 09 yfz450r i knew nothing about. I practice rode once and off to the races we went. And ive been doing it ever since.
Riding Goals
My goal this msxc season is the finish 3rd in the overall points of my series class. My goal for 2020 is to start the IXCR in a few weeks and constantly race a series year round. The msxc is more of a winter series. Future goals are to get a 1st or 2nd place plaque. And then start working toward championships. Then maybe move up to a b class and work from there. Our c class in the msxc is decently stacked. I feel within a year we should really be b class riders. If i could get to a pro level i would be pumped but i believe in setting small achievable goals repetitively until i reach a bigger picture goal.
Competitive Highlights
Im competitive but im really in everything for the fun. Im harder on myself than anyone else. Achieving my personal goals is more important to me than beating everyone else. That being said im never happy if i dont podium. Im even more pissed when i podium but dont plaque because too many people dnf or dont have enough people in the class. Or if the 1st place guy runs too fast and ends up doing another lap
