He has competitively raced in the Southeast for 6 years.

Renée Ricks is a transplanted yankee who loved the taste of New Orleans food so much, she couldn't move away.  She has been riding since she was a teenager and still owns her first bike...a 1988 Honda XR200...and still rides it during the off season.  She has been an MSF certified instructor since 2003.  Renée would like to see the sport of motorcycle road racing in Louisiana grow and is helping D.J. to do just that!
