Nice little video about a 12 year old girl from Zimbawe who rides Motocross and dreams of one day turning professional.

Always good to see Motocross painted in a positive light in the mainstream media.

Needs to work on her Whoop speed though.

The journalists name seems familiar... Smile did she make it to Mini O's in the end?

I don't believe so... But honestly she is doing so much more than just racing now. We're friends on Facebook and the stuff she's been able to accomplish at such a young age is staggering... She's a role model for so many people in that country now and it's awesome that Motocross is the tool she's been using to promote everything.

I saw her at Lommel last year and she is just so humble about it all too. If you ever get a chance to 'support' her in anything... Please do. She fully deserves it.
