| My name is Natalie Kane. I live in Ireland. I am 14 years
old. I have been riding dirt bikes since I was six years old and have been competing in
motocross for approximately eight years. I also participate in a little bit of football.
I train by spinning, body pump, going to the gym for rowing, running and E-bike.
I'm going to do weights there also. My favorite track is Ballykelly Motocross Track
in Northern Ireland. My favorite American track is Cycle Ranch in Floresville, TX. My most
memorable motocross moment has been the boy's British Championship at Dersertmartin,
Northern Ireland. I finished fourth out of 52 other riders (boys). I love the lifestyle of
being a motocross rider, travelling from track to track and I love riding my dirt bike. My
worst motocross moment was when I was in fourth place at the boy's British Champiohsip in
Polesworth, England and my chain came off and I had to DNF. There are many differences
between racing in the United States and Ireland. The track are a bit more demanding, the
heat is much than at home. I can do girls classes in the United States. At home, there is
usually only 3 of us girls so I ride in the boy's classes. I have more than one class in
the United States to compete in. At home, I can only ride my B/W 85cc because if I ride
anything bigger, I can't move back down to the 85cc. I want to get to Loretta Lynn's this
year and when I am older, I want to be a pro rider. |
