I have been racing motorcycles for 2 years. I race 65cc Stock and 65cc Unlimited. 2013 has been a bit of a trying year. I have had a couple of bad injuries and bad luck at my Southeastern Area Qualifier. I suffered a broken Arm in April at the Area Qualifier. Racing Motocross has truly been an adventure but a lot of fun. I have met a lot of great people and developed many new friendships over the last couple of years. I have played team sports since I was 4 years old and finally decided to try something new a few years ago and gave up Football and Baseball to race. I still play Basketball so I can stay in my best physical condition thru the winter months. I love racing and training to compete. I have been a A/B student all 5 year of school. I go to public school and don't miss unless I have a race I am attending. I have been brought up in a Christian environment and am a member of Bible Baptist Church. I am involved in the youth program there also. I will work very hard to promote any sponsors I have to the best of my ability through hard work and dedication to their brands. Thanks for taking time to read a few details about myself.
Riding Goals
My goals for 2014 include attending some Motocross training programs to improve my technique at which I have already taken a 2 day camp at South of the Border and traveling to different tracks every weekend for practice and will be looking for upcoming training camps. I plan to run the complete Thor Mega Series. Run all of the Carolina Winter Series and Florida Winter Am’s. I want to try to qualify for Loretta Lynn's Amateur Nationals. I would like to finish every race I enter in the top 5 of every class in the 2014 season. I would also like to finish in the top 5 in points in all of the series I compete in. I want to work hard training and stay healthy and injury free.
