" I ' ve ridden Trials and Enduro since I was little . I ’ m proud to represent Mexico and Texas in the races !
I started when I was 5 , my dad taught me the sport . I started first with enduro , It was a PW50 , When I was 7 I started riding Trials with an Oset .
I think my type of riding is really based in trials ; I have an aggressive and technical riding style ! Riding Trials has been really helpful for me when I ride Hard enduro and endurocross , the base of this sport is Trials , this has given me the technique and the aggressiveness to pass obstacles .
Right now I have the 2021 TM 300 EN ; the bike is amazing , I love it !! The bike has the factory upgrades including a tuned suspension . I didn ’ t have to change many thing because the bike itself is really good !
What I love of riding is that i ’ ve been in beautiful places where without a bike I wouldn ’ t be able to . My goal is to be the Hard Enduro and Endurocross world champion and i ’ m training a lot for it , that ’ s what I want !!
To any young rider who wants to become a sponsored rider , I would tell him to keep training and fight for what you want and with hard work everything is possible !
I want to thank the TM Factory Racing Team USA for the support , i ’ m really thankful for all the support that they had give me , the bike is amazing and I will try to do the best result that I can !!"
