Personal History
I started riding motorbike ever since I was 3 years old. Yes, that early. It’s because my father was a motocross rider way back. I have 2 sisters and 2 brothers (1 deceased). We grew up in Asingan, Pangasinan Philippines hoping from one place to another to join races. From then on it became our weekend bonding after and before we go to our school. Motocross then became a part of my life until now, a way of my life with my family. Due to many life events I focused in motocross after I finished high School. Few years passed my brother died. He died at the age of 16 because of motocross. Our life at that stage was so low that it affects my racing career. I already had kids at my early age that’s why I continue to run races and win races the way I was.
Riding Goals
I ride because it became our way of life. I join races nationally. Today we usually go to places by land for airlines won’t accept motorbike on board. I race through invitations and if we had ample of funds I join Series. My plan for next year is to join motocross series here in the Philippines. I’ve been to Motocross Series but I can’t fully finish the series for the lac
