AIDEN TIJERO
The #587 of Aiden Tijero first got on a bike in 2004 after his parents bought him his first bike for christmas. The Tijero family did not plan on turning into a racing family, and thought it was
just going to be a trail riding kind of deal. By 2008 they heard about racing and decided to give it a shot and from then Aiden and his family have been chasing the AMA amateur circuit. Although Aiden has shown some great promise in the
sport of motocross, the Tijero family know the importance of education and continue to enrol their son in full time schooling. Supercross champion Ryan Dungey is Aidens inspiration with his never give up attitude, and great work ethic, Aiden strives to be like the champ. Tijero likes to get his riding in through the week with fellow competitors Stilez Robertson, Pierce Brown, Michael Mossiman, and Sean Cantrell, all riders help Aiden better himself. Although motocross is his main focus Aiden enjoys all the things other kids love such as snowboard, wakeboard, BMX, ect. Although the Tijero family keeps Aiden in class full time, they work their butts off to help Aiden and his career. His father has been his training since the beginning, he helps Aiden choose lines, and show him where others are faster and more. His mother helps him with all of the nutrition needed stay healthy and become a motocross star. Aiden has won the 65cc (10-11) Limited championship at Loretta Lynns and The World Championships in Czech Republic in 2013 and is looking to get another championship at Lorettas this year in one of the Supermini classes.
