A goal of mine with this project was to put myself out there more. Wherever there is. So I figure weād go all the way and talk about mental health. Itās only fitting with May being mental health awareness month. Itās something Iāve struggled with since before I knew there was a name for it.
Itās been enlightening that the team at @road2recovery has taken the time while Iāve worked on this project to tell me about their mental health initiative. My goal is to use the 24 hour race to help raise money to support them.
It means a lot all the people who have watched the video and reached out and shared their own experiences.

Canāt beat burnt out old tracks in the middle of the desert, that were carved in well before you were born.

Really canāt thank everyone enough to took the time to watch Ep 01. Ep 02 of the whole 6 Hours of Glen Helen race will be dropping shortly.
Iām editing and training for these races simultaneously so things are taking a little time. The 10 Hour is just around the corner on June 7, and prepping for that has slowed down editing a little.
Going into the 6 hours of Glen Helen @dirtbiketest gave me the chance to try both the ā26 450rx and the 250rx. Itās a pretty unreal experience to get to try the newest of the new leading up to a race.
In Ep 01 of Trying Our Best I got to take the 450rx for a test at an @sra.gp a few weeks before the 6 hour.
We ultimately decided on the 250rx for the race, but man that 450 is something special. #dirtbikes #ultraendurance
Ep 01 of Trying Our Best is live now.
At the beginning of the year I had the idea to step out from behind the camera and be the subject of a series. Thatās series being me attempting to race the 6, 10, and 24 Hours of Glen Helen.
While being active in social media I hardly ever share anything personal. This has by far been one of the most intimidating experiences of my life.
Thank you to everyone who has supported so far.
Weāre well on our way.

Hereās what photographer Chris Klopf (@chrisklopf ) messaged author Scott Hulet (@zero_enganche ) in an attempt to lure him to the Dominican Republic: āBig red snapper, Cap. Sandbars. Shorebreak. A town full of Euros, so bouillabaisse and cioppino. Itās out east, bro. Way east.ā Hulet bit, knowing an ace road-dog like Klopf never wastes your time. Enjoy a short by filmmaker Kevin Jansen (@robotsfrom ) that solidifies the shooterās claims, and hit the link in our bio, or pick up TSJ 35.1, to read āOff to the Lime Coast.ā
Music by Alex Lemire Pasternak (@alexlemire ).
Episode 01 of āTrying Our Bestā is coming soon.
Itās race week. The 6 Hours of Glen Helen is this Sunday so editing is slow going. But it will be out soon.
Thank you to everyone whoās helped and supported this project to this point.

I spent the last year working on this project with @sevenmx_ and @walsh_53 . In motocross racing injuries are often hidden from the public and the competition. Even more so the thoughts that run through a racers head when theyāre injured. Dylan opened up about his thought process after a string of injuries has caused his Supercross career to be a series of starts and stops and I really appreciate that. Rooting for the #101 at Anaheim 1 this Saturday. You can watch the full film at the link in my bio. š
Part of my camera roll after a week in Utah fly fishing with my brother. Took a short break from filling out job applications. I donāt know if Iāve ever posted a photo of myself on here before.
