At just 18 months old, James started his journey on two wheels—and he’s been twisting the throttle ever since. This season alone, he raced 97 times, racking up over 200 motos, 25 overall wins, and 3 Colorado State Championships.
Racing is more than a sport for our family—it’s a way of life that brings us together. Inside our trailer hangs a sign that reads, “Enjoy the Process.” It’s our family motto, reminding us to embrace both the exhilarating highs and the tough lows that come with the race. For us, it’s not just about competition—it’s about learning, growing, and pushing our limits. Whether we’re cleaning bikes, logging 10-hour drives, or knocking out 100 sit-ups a night, we’re all in for the ride.
