I got the Nickname from the team because I always have a bag of mini Spooners at the track and the team always find traces of them long after I have gone home So naturally the Name spooner stuck!
BioI have been racing since I turned 14. I originally started riding dirt bikes around my parent’s farm and found I had a huge passion for motorbikes and pushing them to their limit. I started racing in the AMRA mini club racing TTR 125’s and TZ 125’s Here in Canada. I competed with many national championship riders. One has even gone on to complete at the World Superbike Level.
I have learned a lot from Mini Road Racing and still continue to do it every week to sharpen my skills. After a few years racing Minis I moved on to racing in the Amateur class with the CMRA (Calgary Motorcycle Road Racing Association) were I took the Championship my first year. I turned pro the following year and took the Pro 600 Championship in the CMRA and EMRA(Edmonton Motorcycle Association). I then in turn competed in the Canadian National Championship Series for Calgary Motorsports. I had some good success and learned a lot from racing against the factory Kawasaki and Suzuki teams. At this point I wanted to further pursue my Career and started racing in the States.
Starting in 2011 I competed with the UTAH SBA in the Master of the Mountain Series. I was able to take 4 Regional Championships in one year on a 600. I competed in the AMA in there Super stock class when they came to Utah. I also competed with the MRA out of Colorado and took first places at tracks I have never been to. Following the championships I got invited to test at Sonoma and ride for Triple Crown Industries in the AMA National Series. The team underwent financial troubles and I lost my ride.
Me and a few sponsors were able to get a bike together and a budget together to continue the Season were I had some decent finishes. After that year we regrouped and focused on racing a 1000 Superstock bike in the Utah SBA and select Moto America rounds (Mostly Western Rounds) and Austin Texas.
I was able to take multiple wins with the 1000 instantly at the regional level and top 10 finishes in the Moto AmericaSeries.
This brings us to 2016 were I was focusing racing as much as I could with the UTAH SBA, WMRRA and OMMRA. I was constantly finishing either 1st or 2nd racing against fully built superbikes with my Super stock bike and at new tracks I have never been to.

Daniel started the season off with a trip to the Hospital which ended his first expert season before it started. Daniel became a massive help to our team with helping us run our S1000rr electronics and helping our rider out at Moto America. It wasn't long before he returned to racing but on a borrowed bike but expired to gearbox issues. The following round more electrical grimlins then the final round another crash when he was taken out.
A season with lessons learned and the only way on from here is up! Roll on 2019
