Biography

Building on his extensive SCORE desert racing experience, this Colorado-based competitor demonstrated his endurance racing prowess with a notable second-place class finish in the grueling PRO MOTO 50 division at the 2024 SCORE Baja 1000. Racing aboard a Husqvarna 501 with team number 556x, he joined an elite six-rider squad that included seasoned veterans from across North America, completing the legendary 1,000-mile course in 35:57:37.

The Grand Lake resident's participation in SCORE's premier desert racing series showcases his commitment to off-road motorcycle competition at the highest level. The PRO MOTO 50 class, reserved for riders over 50 years old, represents some of the most experienced and skilled competitors in desert racing, making his podium achievement particularly significant. His team's successful finish in the notoriously challenging Baja 1000 – where mechanical failures and navigational errors claim numerous entries annually – demonstrates both his individual skill and ability to contribute to a winning team dynamic.

Competing in SCORE's premier events from his Colorado base, he represents the dedication required to compete in Mexico's unforgiving desert terrain, where only the most prepared and skilled racers achieve podium recognition in this legendary motorsports venue.
