Bought a Redline 340 in 1989 and started racing shortly after.
Highlights include a 1st, 3rd and 2nd at the first Land O Lakes Nationals in Rochester, MN. My last race before my ride got stolen was 3 man main in Mankato. We were 3 wide the entire race. I took first by a wheel.
For the winter I will be at Rehbiens every other weekend and doing the SCR. For the summer; racing district 3 to 4 times a week, Making a State championship run and going to the Land O Lakes National and the Midwest Nationals
Returning to BMX after 11yrs and watching my 2 boys race along side me.
The thrill and the rush of the race, and friends made during the events
The physical and mental challenges.
My racing style is aggressive and hard charging. If I know I can do it I will always go for it. Sometimes I crash, but the pay off is huge!
I hit the wieghts 2 or 3 days a week and ride a 21 speed Mtn. bike for cardio.
I listen to anything rock leaning towards the 80's and Metallica on race days
