The Roots MX June 2014 | Page 64

What’s your favorite place to ride? Coyote MX How is it racing against the boys? In this sport I really feel strongly about girls/women aspiring to ride in the pro ranks with the men. I feel like I’m working hard towards that goal and hopefully one day I get the chance to line up in either supercross or motocross. There are already a good group of girls/women now with that same goal in mind and I think that it will better our sport and push it into a new direction. How has switching to KTM influenced your expectations for 2014? This 2014 year I’m really excited about all the changes. The team at KTM have been so fantastic to me plus the 2014 KTM 85 is amazing and fits me perfect. I love everything about this bike.  Who are your biggest influences in the industry? Dean Wilson, Jessica Patterson, Trey Canard, Ryan Villopoto, James Stewart, Andrew Short, Matt Goerke, Sarah Whitmore, Kevin Windham, Ashley Fiolek What hobbies do you have outside of motocross? In my spare time, which isn’t much, I like riding bicycles with my brother, acting, singing, listening to music, singing karaoke, playing with my dogs, and shopping of course. Speaking of acting and singing, what’s this we hear about you being on television? Haha, yeah. I was on Nickelodeon. I guess if I wasn’t going to be a motocross racer, I would want to be an actor. Who supports you in racing, and who would you like to thank? Lucas Oil, KTM, Nihilo, FMF, Fly, Scott, Bell, Motorcycle Superstore, Pirelli, Protaper, Dt1, GPSsuspension, Alpinestar, ClubMx, Spaceport Cycles. 64 theROOTSMX • ISSUE 2 2014
