About Me
I started riding when I was at the age of 8 and started racing 65's when I was 11. It's crazy how fast life can fly by especially when your involved in a sport like this. There's nothing better! Not only have I met hundreds of life long buddies but...

This past weekend was crazy!! And not in a good way! It was RedBuds open practice and I was feeling really good out there. But on the second practice on my very last lap as I hit the T3 and my front sprocket came off and snapped my chain mid-air. It was horrifying. My bike immediately endo'd and I had no choice but to bail midair! The T3 is around 50-65 feet and I was about 20-25 ft up when I had to bail. But for how badly things went, things actually went perfectly. I don't know how but I am thankful I didn't get majorly hurt besides really injuring my ankles, my butt, my left shoulder and my right elbow. But no broken bones! I really wish I would have been wearing my GoPro! On the other hand, my bike is pretty destroyed. So it looks like for the next two weeks or so I'm just going to be recovering and trying to get my bike back to normal.
