Most Memorable Moments:

"I have had a lot of memorable moments Hillclimbing because I have been brought up doing it since I was 5.  Twenty Six years later I’m still going and have been to a lot of fun events.  The France events to represent the USA is a great honor and I have been doing that since 1991.  Winning the NAHA 0-600 Championship in 2002 means a lot because it is the only one I have.  I have a 5 class wins at the Great American in Billings, which use to be a huge event for us.  Jeremy McGrath and David Pingree coming to ride on our team in their first hillclimbs.  Going to Poags Hole, NY  in 2006  for the AMA hillclimb was really cool to race against Watson and “Tiger”.  Having Dave Watson as my teammate for 2 years was priceless.  Really there are too many to memorable moments to count and hopefully a lot more to come with the direction the sport is going."

Comments:

"I would just like to thank everyone that makes it possible for us to have these events and everyone that helps me get to them.  None of this would be possible without all of your efforts and of course the blessings received from the Lord above. A very special thanks to my Dad for all the time he spends on all the behind the scenes projects to keep me competitive and the sport of hillclimbing progressing into the future."
