Why do you like this sport?
I feel truly free when I ride. I know of nothing else that I am willing to hurt myself over and over and I keep going back for more. MX has motivated me to train, lose weight, quit smoking, I hardly drink and my weekends are spent riding or racing. My children love this sport and we are at our happiest when we are riding together and I see so many families who share this so it draws us in even closer to it. I am a single father raising 2 boys & 1 girl and this is one of the few activities we all truly enjoy doing together.
What inspires you to compete?
The camaraderie and friendships that are formed. I am not a pro and I find with the C class its much more about fun and friendships. Every race must have a winner and a loser and I am okay with being in any position as long I can participate.
