Personal History
Ride till you Die, is my motto and way of life. I am a 37 year old with a history of racing almost 25 years. I have raced MX, Flattrack, Supermoto,and even HareScambles over the years on 2 and 4 wheels. I have worked as a Parts Manager as well as a Sales Manager at motorcycle shops in the Ohio Valley Tri -State area that has given me some of the best experiences I have had in my life. With the economic down turn I had to make a career change to the health industry and I now work in a local hospital medical records department. On the good side I have weekends of to race. After many scares and broken bones, most notably a broken femur in 05 and broken back in 06 , I have settled down a bit and have come full circle by returning back to ATV Flattrack.In 1989 I was 13 and racing a Yamaha Warrior in Outlaw flattrack and TT races. I was lucky enough at the time to be able to share the track with a young Tim Farr and a kid from New Jersey named Travis Spader. Little did I know at the time they would both became ATV racing National Champs. Today I am in the process of building a Suzuki LTR450 to campaign select rounds of the 2013 ATVA Extreme Dirttrack Nationals and Ohio's CRA Flattrack championships. I have a few CRA events left this season, and I could not be having any more fun than I am now.
