About Me
Been around the moto scene quite a few years. Raced the MEGA series several years. Raced the age classes, 35 plus and 40 plus. Crashed hard at Muddy Creek in 2002, injured my neck and had to give up racing. I am operations manager at Greeneville HONDA in Greeneville,TN. I am also the sponsor for Dave Albert, known as "Hillbilly" in the MX forums. Me and Hillbilly have put a few miles on the road together as we raced and he still races and I go with him for support and pit crew. I am married to my beautiful wife,Cindy, have 3 daughters, 2 grandsons and a third one due in July. Thanks for having a forum where the interest of MX is supported.

What are Kevin's chances of adding another title to his resume? Who will be his competition this year? Have watched him over the years and he still has speed, especially in the corners. Being a resident of East TN, I wish him well in his accomplishments at LL's.

Have a rider on a new 08 CRF450R, bike has run great till the last few days. Seems it wants to bog down out of the gate, and as he is able to bump it off after it stalls, runs fine in the moto, seems to be either a jetting issue or something in the timing. The bike is kept...

1/24/2012 5:07am
Last Thursday afternoon, 8-13-09, my father-in-law, shot himself and took his own life. Was a total shock to the family as NO CLUES what-so-ever indicated he would do such a thing. The emotions are all mixed up in the family right now, anger, sadness and total disbelief. Big question of "WHY?" is on everyone's mind. May never know. But dealing...
