I began riding in late 1982 on ATC’s switching to 4 Wheelers in 1984. I rode consistently with the occasional race until 1992. I joined the Navy in 1992 and stayed until late 2000 during this time I was totally out of the sport (I was a Naval Aircrew Man and chose not to risk my flight status). I purchased a Predator 500 in 2003, began riding again and started racing at the beginning of 2005.
