I am a regular dude that eats and breathes dirtbikes.

Growing up on a small horse ranch my parents wouldn’t allow me to have a dirt bike. I could only dream I was jumping everything when we went on long drives….on a dirtbike.

When I moved out of the house I worked a second job to pay for my first bike…

First bike I bought was a brand new 2005 CRF250x. I rode the wheels off that bike and would spit shine that baby after every ride.

Within a couple of years I quickly felt like I wanted more power and sold the 2005 and bought 2007 KTM 250SXF.

At the time all my riding buddies mocked me for buying the euro junk…..

rode Motocross as much as I could but where I live there isn’t very many tracks, which means I spend MOST of my time on single track.

While I loved the more power and the WAY better handling. The KTM felt like a mountain bike.

However, like most people learn when the buy a MX bike, they aren’t all that fun on slow technical single track. In fact the worst arm pump I have ever experienced was on that 2007 KTM 250SXF.

That Journey let me to a 2008 KTM 250 XCW…..My very first 2 stroke….again my buddies mocked me until the rode it. Hah.

Fast forward to now….I am currently building my own YouTube channel called Backcountry Life
