I got started due to the move to New Jersey from Pennsylvania. We saw dirtbikes on the sides of the road, and I told my father I wanted to try that someday. Two years later, I got my first bike, a Honda XR 80.
Next season, I am planning on attending a few National amateur events such as Ponca, Mini-O`s, and perhaps a few Nationals. My biggest goal for next season is to accomplish my dream and qualify and finish in the top ten at Loretta Lynn`s.
At the end of the day, there is nothing better than being up top on the box.
My most embarassing moment would have to be in my first race on my KX65. I accidentally turned the gas off on the starting line. Boy did I feel embarassed.
I think my style is more laid back and relaxed, until its` time to race. Once I strap that helmet on, it`s all business, and I am going for the top spot, and will give it 110% to get there.
I currently do cardio workouts in the gym as well as running for my endurance levels. I play football and I wrestle, and this enables me to control my strength to the maximum as well as my endurance levels. I ususally spend about two hours a day in the gym, as well as eating right.
After competing in the mini classes for two years, I finally moved up to the full size bikes, and they seemed to fit my style as well as my size much better.
