How I got started

I first started by getting a Honda XR50. I got it when I was 6 years old. He got it for me because he use to ride dirt bikes so he wanted to get me started in motocross too. When I turned 9 years old I got a KX65. When I turned 11 years old. I got a RM80. About 2 months later my dad got me a 2005 KTM85.

Goals for the Future

Next seoson I`m going to try to get top five in each of the races. Last seoson was my first time ever racing so i was pretty inconsistent. Last year i wasnt really going for points, since it was just my first year. But this year I`m going to try to go for the championship, or at least top three in it.

What inspires you to compete?

What inspires me to compete is my dad. He inspires me to compete because he has a dirtbike and he likes to ride to. My dad also use to ride when he was young. He made it to Lorretta Lynn`s. When he was at Lorretta`s he got sixth. He always trains me how to ride to. And someday I hope I can also make it to Lorretta lynn`s.

What has been your most embarrassing moment?

When I was on my pitbike and I fell over in front of the stands.

Some Personal Information About Me:

My name is Addison Henderson, but most people just call me Addy. I am 12 years old and I will turn 13 on June 22. I ride 85cc 12-13 and 85cc C class. I have been riding since I was 6 years old. I love riding and someday hope to become pro.

Do you train? What does your schedule look like?

Yes I do train. My normal schedule is to get up at 7:00 every morning and go run about three miles. But now I got a bicycle. So now I normally ride bicycles for 30 minutes straight up and down different roads. If we are not able to ride bicycles, then my dad has a workout machine that I can use. I also go to the gym on Tuesday`s and Thursday`s because i have a personel trainer.

I am a very competitive person. I have been competitive in every sport that I have ever played. Even if it is just going to a neighboor hood to play football, I didn`t like to lose. I am a very aggressive racer, but I am a fair racer. I race to win. But I know how to be a good sport if I don`t win.
