I watched a documentary on Dani Pedrosa and that showed me how hard he works so he is my hero and I want to achieve in the way that he has."

"When I am not riding my bike I like to do anything that is a bit risky like snowboarding or mountain biking and I like hanging out with my friends. At school I like maths and a bit of history.

I have liked riding bikes ever since I was a kid and my parents bought me a bike. I just loved it from the start."
