| Introduction | I am born in Arras the 30th of December in the North of France. At the age of four years old I got a PW 50 Yamaha for X-Mas and did my first race few months later. I got this present because I had a toy battery motorcycle and one day I broke it against a wall because it was not going fast enough...I never thought motorcycle races will be my job. I was racing for fun until I got picked up in a professional team at 16 years old. My parents and Grandparents was always behind me to be able to race with a minimum of equipment.I will never stop to thanks them, I would not be here without my family! I started to race in the European Motocross Championship between 96 and 97. In 98 and 99 I raced the Motocross GP's. 2000 was a step in my career, I won the SX in Bercy and got a chance to race SX and MX in the US until 2006. End of 2006 I came back to France and did the SX series in Germany and in the same time I tried few races in the Enduro World Championship. After good results I signed my first contract to race in the Enduro World Championship. |
