Personal History
My name is Jaycee Nienaber. I am 17 years old.
My passion is riding and competing in Motorcycle off-road/enduro events. I am a highly motivated person, who enjoys a positive lifestyle. I love to practice. I am dedicated to make my racing career a success.
I have been competing since 2009 and have been competing on national level since 2011.
I am a team-player and am committed to the sport. I work hard and believe in loyalty towards my sponsors.
Riding Goals
For the 2012 season I am riding in the Manhand Junior Racing team. I have been riding with a 2010 YZF250 Yamaha up until June 2012. I have had mechanical problems in the beginning of the year, and this resulted in some of the standings in the championships. Since July 2012, I am riding with a 2012 YZF250 and my results improved. At the Bell 300, Jnr Nationals, the race was stopped as a result of fire in the second lap, but had the second fastest lap time in the class. There after at the Wolmaranstad Jnr National I was in the front, but fell and dislocated my shoulder, I still managed to finish the race in 2nd place only 24 second behind the winner. I was determined to finish and I will never give up.
In 2013 I will be moving to Seniors, and my plan is to compete in Snr National Off-road championship and Snr National Enduro championship.
