How long you have been riding and racing:
I have been riding for about 7 years and racing for 2 years.

How did you get into racing:
When I was little I would watch races on TV and loved RC, and my dad also did hill climbing events for a long time. My freshman year, all my friends were talking about hare scramble racing and they were comparing the Paul Koontz Mega Series to Mid-Atlantic. When I found out it was woods racing, I thought to myself "I can do that, that's what Im going to do", so I did my homework and heard really good things about the Paul Koontz's Series and here I am.

How did you finish in 2006:
I wanted to finish but my 125 didn't, and since I didn't have two bikes, a few races was all that I coould make it to.

Goals for 2007:
To be the Champ in School Boy class.

Longterm Goals:
Become a Pro A rider in Paul Koontz, race GNCC, and eventually go to as many Last Man Standing races I can.

A lot of Mud! and Huge Hills! I love challenges!

Bike Barn, Reedsville, WV

Describe your worst crash:
I was riding with a bunch of my buddies on the tracks around my house, and I was riding a wheelie and completely forgot about this whoops section in the track. As I was flipping backwards on my bike my helmet went one way, I went one way, and my bike ended up another way cart wheeling. I fractured my elbow and got bruised and cut pretty bad.

Describe your best racing day you have had:
As long as the bike withstands my riding and I pass the checkered flag its a great race day. First place isn't bad either.

How you make a living:
Summer jobs to pay for the next racing year and school.

Describe you training program:
I drink lots of water, ride every chance I get, and exercise every other day for a couple hours.

Why you like racing: Its my dream, its something I have always wanted to do and its something that with practice I think could go far in and its a great adrenaline rush.

What you do in your spare time:
I ride a lot, do a lot of stuff with my family, and spend time with my girlfriend.

Lasagna
