(2002 – 2003 season) My Story I grew up loving motorcycles. I talked my parents into letting me get one and start racing. I was very fortunate to accomplish my dream as a kid and make money racing dirt bikes. As you are well aware, it was extremely challenging and required an insane amount of work and dedication, especially from my parents and, later, from my wife and kids. They sacrificed a lot. Then after a number of bad injuries, I decided it was time for a roll cage. I started working for people like Robby Gordon and getting help from other contacts. I was able to continue racing and support my wife and kids. hard and earn a spot on the Clark County Fire Department in Las Vegas. Now, fortunately with my schedule, I am able to still do some truck racing. I have also really been enjoying putting some time back on the motorcycle. There is nothing in the world like riding bikes. I am looking forward to the competition, challenge and just the pure enjoyment, that comes from riding. It is truly good for the body, mind and spirit. For reasons including family, home time, age, and economy, I decided I should go after my other childhood dream - becoming a firefighter. Lessons from racing served me well as I worked extremely I look forward to supporting and representing your company in a positive manner.
