I start doing MX on board of a 1992 model Yamaha Yz 125, on the year 2000, when I was invited from WMCC to participate in the Inter Series in Windhoek, wich I made every year until end of 2003.
In the end of that same year I was invited to participate in the 2004 championship in Namibia, on the Masters Class. In the begining of 2004, my sponsor (PORTO DO LOBITO), bought me one Honda CRF 250 R, with wich I made the championship of 2004 always representing Angola in the Namibian Championship, and, achieving the 1st place in all the races I participate.
In 2005, and due to not enough riders, I went to Clubmens Class, where I have won my first race on the Inter Series, the Namibian Clubmen Championship and the 8th position in King of the Dirt.
2005 was also the year that I move with my family to Windhoek-Namibia, to live, work and participate again in the Namibiam Championships. So, and after a big surprise of mine, in the beginning of the first race on the 2006 Namibian Championship, I was moved up to the Open Class (6 month away from my the 40th anniversary), being this way, I believe, the oldest man racing Motocross among the Open Class Riders.
By now and so far, I believe I am in the 2nd position of the Open Class Riders, and the future will tell until the end of it.
