Being the only rider in your family, what got you into bikes?
One day at school I saw a random rider flying down the main street and it just clicked into my head that I wanted to ride, too.
What was your first ride like and what were you on?
I was on a Honda CBR600RR. It was amazing-the biggest rush I ever had in my life.
You won the people's choice SSB Model Competition; what made you enter the comp?
My friend mentioned it to me. If he hadn't told me I wouldn't have been featured!
This was your first photo shoot-what did you think?
I was a bit nervous at first, but you guys eased me up. Now I can't wait to do more!
What's your favorite riding style: fast and hard or smooth and slow?
Fast and hard...just how I like it!
What's your preference: throwing a leg over a big man's bike (1000cc) or staying safe on something small (600cc)?
Throwing my leg over something big. I want that manly feeling when I'm riding on it.
If you were a guy, what would be your go-to pick-up line?
Excuse me, I have an extra seat on my bike, would you like a ride?
Some riders have no shame when it comes to unnecessary noise. When do you think it's appropriate to be loud?
That's kind of a hard question. I'd say all the time! The majority of drivers don't see us riders so the more noise, the more attention. It's like that saying, "Loud Pipes Save Lives."
