How long have you been biking?
Ever since I can remember,
I started racing a few days after my 6th
birthday,(as soon as I could) I got my first bike
when I was 3 for Christmas and its all I ever
wanted. I have raced in other disciplines motor x,
grass track minimotos and now, road racing. What inspired you to start racing? My dad raced for years, it's always been my life and all I've known. That why I started but not why I race now, it's all for the love and excitement of racing.
What are your ambitions? To be the best, full stop.
Who do you look up to in racing? When I was younger Kevin Schwantz, and Valentino Rossi, and always my dad Phill Burman. But now I know I have ever possibility and believe I have what I takes given the opportunities to make my career work and become a successful rider.
What do you do in your spare time? As I'm training as a machinist I spent alot of my time make trick bits for my bike, I have made a top yoke and currently working on some rearset. Also I like to keep fit by going swimming, and running, all while spending time with my boyfriend Ben.
Who's your favourite racing hunk? Valentino Rossi, of his younger days. Nicky Hayden isn't to bad either.
Have you ever crashed? If so how serious was it and why hasn't it put you off? Have I ever, I'm often crashing, dad says to shows your trying well when it suits him anyway, I've broken my ankle last year at Snetterton highsided out of the bombhole, fell out of 2nd place on last lap. also broken my arm riding a motorbike. I had another accident at Cadwell but this time on 4 wheels I fell off a skate board while going down the mountain and broke my arm when I was young .
