This July 16th, 2024 I turn 51 and my drive for Bmx racing is stronger than ever! My wife says I should be slowing down but when I reflect on my past NBL and ABA accomplishments, it reveals allot of passion where I've recieved two NBL #9, NBL #9 appearances in my Expert Class. For two years straight, while in the USN, I only raced 8 NBL nationals and 2 NBL regionals for two years straight. I've also have an ABA World #8 from 2001, that I'm so proud of.  These top 10 national numbers's and that One World #8 mean allot to me.  My team mate Darand Ross is kiling it now on the USA BMX curcuit and I'm so proud of him. Matching his efforts, Here in NC, keeps me on my toes and we make each other better. I'm going to try and quietly move back to the national circuit soon maybe under the T.R.E. Brand.  I think all of the NC racers make each other better via competition and the conversation.  Although I'm only focused on the USA Bmx NC State Title & Gold Cup Regionals to include both Finals, my TRE cycle therapy helps me balance it all for my personal mental-stability.  I've come to realize that competition, leasure riding, coaching, and continued positive attitude "Just Plain Works" for Me and is teachable.
