Like
many other professional riders, Cole’s passion for riding
started at a young age, placing third in his first race at the
age of five. After that I was hooked on racing. He started taking
it more serious at the age of eleven when his parents began
to taking him to the major amateur nationals. The highlight
of his amateur career was in 2002, where he won his first Championship
at Loretta Lynn’s in the 125 B Mod class. In 2004, Cole
turned pro, racing for team Samsung/Radio Shack.
Due
to an injury Cole only made it to the three races that year,
but made his mark placing 12th, 16th and 11th managing to place
18th for the season in overall points. Cole’s return to
the pro scene after his injuries re-ignited his passion to succeed
and has led him to joining Team Wyvern. This year he’ll
compete in the Supercross 450 class along with teammate Leighton
Lillie. He has very high expectations for himself, as well as
his teammates for the 2007 Supercross season!
