Racing as part of a diverse international team in the grueling SCORE Baja 1000, this Las Vegas-based competitor has demonstrated the collaborative spirit that defines elite desert racing. In the 2021 SCORE Baja 1000, he joined the #228x Sportsman Motorcycle team alongside Scott McIntosh, Mike Youmans, Dave Fifer, Ben Bodi Sandbothe, Risto Nemi from Finland, Rhett Oden, and Brian Backus, piloting their Honda CRF450X through the punishing 1,310-mile course from La Paz to Ensenada.
The team's 13th-place finish in the highly competitive Sportsman Motorcycle class, completing the race in 41:41:25, showcased their determination and mechanical reliability across some of the most challenging terrain in desert racing. This achievement came during a historic running of the Baja 1000 that featured the first-ever south-to-north format, testing competitors with deep silt sections capable of swallowing UTVs whole and technical terrain that challenged even the most experienced racers.
His participation in this legendary event demonstrates the international appeal and camaraderie of SCORE desert racing, where riders from different continents unite to tackle Baja's unforgiving landscape. The collaborative effort required to successfully complete the Baja 1000 represents the pinnacle of endurance racing teamwork.

Yet, this race brought out 13-racers, half of which were not able to finish. Those that crossed the finish all said it was their toughest race yet. Read More
