Enthusiastic and motivated to attain and reach my goals as well as help others with their cycling for almost 44 years now. We race and train year round for primarily the local ,state and regional circuit , but this past year we were able to compete in the World Championships.
Doing clinics for local riders helps keep myself and them on target for goals. We have recently utilized 8k 360 video technology for both entertainment and a training tool for the cycling for both myself and the riders i work with. I have some small co sponsors i work with in the videos/promotion and with the racing that helps me and them both succeed.
Started BMX Racing in Oct. 1981 at age 9.
Consistently set goals to move up in proficiency to highest amateur ranking. From age 13 and older i also competed for national ranking in the USA.

Working on progressing both myself and the local riders including my grandchildren After returning to the sport in late summer 2023 i decided to make a goal of qualifying and racing the 2024 UCI world championships in Rockhill NC There were many local racers working hard to also realize their goals and i was able to work along side with some of them locally The skills we utilized were many practice sessions at the race track including local events with racing and practicing three or more times a week as well as weight resistance training at the gym
Sprint training intervals as well as gate start only are also skills we work on weekly
