RACING HISTORY: Sarted Motorcross when I was 11 - raced my DS80 - non-competitive. Got a 89 YZ80 when i was 12 and raced competitively at Hastings Valley Club Meetings. Then I had a 90 RM80 which I raced till I was 15. I then moved onto a brand new model 99 RM125, which I started racing at Cessnock and Lake Macquarie Motorcycle Clubs at Newcastle in the Junior ranks. This is when my skills developed because I was riding against the best in Australia and the level of competition was so high. I started competing in Senior ranks in 2000. In 2001 I moved onto a CR125. In 2002 it was a RM125.. Then 2004 YZ250F.  I am currently riding Ballards Motorex Yamaha WR 450F for the Year of 2008.
