Age 35, work for the City of Phoenix in the Water Services Department. Started riding in 1975 when I was 5 years old on a Suzuki 80. Then rode a KDX 80 into high school, and then rode a KDX 250 through high school. From 1990 to 2006, I rode mainly on borrowed bikes from friends. In January of 2006, I decided to buy a bike and get back into the sport, I bought a 2003 KDX 220. In March, I bit the bullet and bought a 2006 KTM 450 EXC.
