It was a little less than two years ago when Patrick Lundgren's parents somewhat reluctantly took him to his first motorcycle cross country race. He started racing regularly in October of 2008 in the C class (beginner) and was finishing consistently in the top five in his class and age group.
Lundgren races in the District 36 Motion Pro Youth Cross Country Series. A cross country race lasts an hour and a half for his class and age group and covers terrain of all types, fire roads, motor cross tracks, creek crossings, tight single track, hill climbs, and log crossings. The course usually varies in length from eight to 15 miles and the races are all over Northern California. The district puts on about 15 races per year.
In 2009 he advanced to the B class (intermediate). He won the Season Points Championship for the B class in 2009. As a result of winning the season championship, he advanced to the A class (expert). He was also awarded the #16 plate for being ranked 16th overall in Northern California for youth cross country racing after the 2009 season. This will be his last year in the youth class.
He has a partial sponsorship with O'Neal MX and is featured on their web site this month in the amateur spotlight.
