HISTORY

My name is Misty Upchurch I am 9 years old. I have been riding since I was 3,  started racing at 5. I was on a 50 for the last 2 years, I got a 65 and started riding it. For Christamas 2008 I got a YZ 85(best gift EVER). I was not going to start riding it until next year. I finally talked my parents into letting me ride it and NOW that is what I ride all the time. This year has been full of challenages. I  thaguesst is to be expected because of the big jump in bikes. But looking back on this year I wouldn't change a thing. Granted I didn't finish first all the time, but 3rd isn't bad for my first year. Now I can't wait until next season. All I see for my future is Improvement.

My favorite thing about racing is going fast.

My favorite rider is: Chad Reed

Besides Motocross, I also enjoy basketball, soccer, BMX, and jumping on my trampoline.

I enjoy spending time with my family and friends and playing with my dogs Reno and Layla.
