Striders (2013-2015)

● I won the first race that I ever entered on my Strider

before I turned 2 years old.

● I continued to race my Strider for a little while after

turning two and I finished 1st and 2nd in most of my

races.

BMX (2015-2017)

● I started racing my sister’s Micro Mini in the 5 and Under

Novice class just before I turned 4 years old.

● I won my first race shortly after I turned 4 and then I

went on to win my 10 Novice races during the 2016

racing season at Napa BMX, which bumped me up into the

Intermediate class.

● In 2017 I raced 5 and Under Intermediate at Napa BMX

and in the California State Championship Series.

● I finished 1st and 2nd in all of my State Qualifiers and

went into the State Finals in second place, just two points

behind my friend Grant Moore.

● I won the pre-race at Oak Creek the night before the State

Finals.

● I finished 5th in the State Finals and ended up with the 3

plate for the 2017 California State Championship.

Road Racing (2018-2020)

2018

● I rode a motorcycle for the first time in the summer of

2018 when I was 6 1⁄2 years old.

● My first race was in October at my home track, Sesto Pista,

in Florence, Italy.

● I won my first minimoto race in December at Sesto Pista.

2019

● I competed in the 2019 Trofeo Toscano (Central Italian

Minimoto Championship Series) in the Primi Passi class

(under eight years old).

● We were scheduled to return to the US in June so I was

only able to compete in 3 of the 5 rounds, which made me

very sad when I first realized that I couldn’t complete the

whole series.

● Each round had two races so I was able to race in 6 races.

Here are my results:

○ 1st place in race #1 of Round 1 @ Sesto Pista in

Florence.

○ 2nd place in race #2 of Round 1 @ Sesto Pista in

Florence.

○ DNF (due to mechanical)in race #1 of Round 2 @

Sesto Pista in Florence.

○ 1st place in race #2 of Round 2 @ Sesto Pista in

Florence.

○ 1st place in race #1 of Round 3 @ Palisportiva

Montecchio Vesponi, Cortona.

○ 1st place in race #2 of Round 3 @ Palisportiva

Montecchio Vesponi, Cortona.

2020

● Now my family and I are back in California and have

continued training on my CRF 50, mainly at Apex and

Adams in Riverside county. I also frequently train with

Robert Roach Jr. doing Lorenzo Method parking lot

training.

● Due to Covid all of the club racing in California was

cancelled this year, but we did travel to Tucsonon in early

November to compete in the 2020 AMA Supermoto

Championships.
