What's new in my world...

Well, it is winter and I don’t get to spend much time at all on my dirt bike, so I’m trying to keep myself busy with a bunch of other stuff.

2013 racing season is just around the corner, and I want to make sure I’m physically ready to go. I am still working on getting my back as strong as it was before, never thought that last year’s injury would hang with me for so long. Lesson learned….no more back breaking J

I’ve been skiing quite a bit and am spending quite some time on my snow skate, I’ve also been riding a little bit of BMX with good friends of mine, but all of that really just keeps my mind occupied and distracts me from constantly thinking about how much I want to ride my dirt bike and get back to racing.

I am working very hard in the gym….err…nah…we don’t use a gym. Dad put together a training program for me that requires rocks, a bench, some logs, a snow covered hill, a bunch of other stuff you won’t find in the gym; I provide my blood, sweat, and (t)ears. It’s been awesome. I currently train after school, 4 days on, then 1 day off…boy do I like my off day. My back has not acted up at all since we started this program – if anything it has gotten stronger than before my injury.

The bike is going to get some attention over the next few weeks as well. Some suspension work is in order, the engine will get a full exam, and we’ll pretty it up so it will look awesome and represent my sponsors well. Speaking of sponsors, I have been fortunate to get hooked up with Fly Racing as my gear sponsor for next season, Kenda tires will again provide the traction, Leo Vince will handle my exhaust gases J, Engine Ice will cool my engine, and Panic Rev will keep me safe.

I am so fired up for the next season…bring it!!!!!!!!!!!
Braaap!!!
