A lot of people know what they want and work hard for it. As time passes they realize it's harder than they thought. There are only a handful of people that push through, they're the ones that envisions the grass greener on the other side.
I have been riding dirt bikes since 2015. 2016 was my first racing year and man I worked hard trying to keep up with the ladies in my class. I always crashed out or had injuries. I slightly lost hope for the year. Just by being at all the races and finishing them, I ended 2nd in the championship for consistency. It just proves that consistency is key...
At the end of 2016, we got a call from legend, Louwrens Mahoney. He offered me a spot in his own racing team he wants to create for 2017. I am very excited for this season and I appreciate my deal. Thanks to KTM, HRP, EMD, EVS, Just1 Helmets, Dunlop, USWE, Cycra and Louwrens for everything so far. I will make you guys proud!
My first GXCC as a member of Mahoney Junior KTM Raceteam
I even got the HOLESHOT at GXCC 1.
Awesome news Megan :)
2017 will be your year! Hard work does pay off you are 100% right!
Racing motocross is HARD and there are always days when you pick yourself up from under someone elses bike and think... why i am doing this haha.
But then you get back on and you realise why :)
I was always told it's not how you get knocked down that counts... it's how you pick yourself back up that matters!
Team KTM!!! :)
Wow this is awesome! Great job for not giving up!! I bet sometimes when you get injured you wonder why you keep doing it!? Right? haha.
I can relate to this, of course I'm not doing anything quite as ... Badass! But Its sad to see people quit when they finally got their foot in the door.
