“Coming from the horse show world I compare motocross to showing horses. It’s a mental game. You need to be confident and secure with your ability. It’s long hours of practice. It’s dirty, dusty, windy, hot and than cold depending on the time of year. Seat time …. Practice practice. Hurry up and wait. Lots of driving and traveling. Early mornings and late nights. Sacrifice … Tutoring on holidays and days off of school to stay caught up or even ahead. Work and learning good work ethic.”
