My racing career started in 2006 when my grandad took me to see a friend race, whilst there he surprised me and presented me with an Aprilla RS 125cc motorbike. I then spent the next few months achieving my Auto Cycle Union (ACU) Race licence. I started the 2007 season racing in the North East Championship, the Melville Club Championship and also the Kilcody Championship.
I went on to win the North East Championship and came 2nd in the Melville Club Championship. In 2008 we started to have a lot of mechanical break downs with the Aprilla 125cc, which spoilt my chances of winning the championship, I was also growing to big for the Aprill so we decided to move up to a larger bike. We sold the 125 and bought a Suzuki SV 650cc to race in the competitive mini twin class. I finished off the 2008 racing season getting used to the bike and I achieved a few 4th's right on the leader's tail.
In the 2009 current season I hit the ground running at my favorite circuit croft, finishing 2nd place behind my new rival, the guy to beat Davie Bell. As the season has progressed I have managed to lap a faster time then him, but I am still behind him in the Championship to date. On the other hand in the Kilcody Championship I am doing better, I did the double win at the Knockhill circuit making me the favorite to win the Championship and I am a strong contender to win the Melville Club Championship.
