As of 8/15/2019, Andy is still the fastest person to ever lap Portland International Raceway on a motorcycle. He is a professional racer that spans about every type of competitive thing you can do on a motorcycle. He is also a talented artist that creates many of the designs you see and does custom decals, and he does custom videos that tie in beautifully with his YouTube channel.

The fastest official motorcycle lap time at Portland International Raceway was set by Andy in 2018 on his 2016 Yamaha R1. Road racing, Super Hooligan, Nitro World Circus, motocross, stunt riding... when it comes to riding motorcycles, Andy is one of the most versatile you will find that do this at a high level.
