What’s going on Nico, how’ve you been?

Been doing great actually, just came out here to Perris Raceway today to put in a few laps on the bike and ride with Deegan.

How do you feel coming into this season?

Coming in this year with the two teams combining has been great, everything has been going really good, lots of support, and so far the season has been working out in my favor. I have been staying healthy with a few minor injuries here and there, banged up my wrist but over all I am feeling great and ready for the rest of the season.

Last weekend was another good run for you in Colorado…

Last weekend in Colorado went really well. If there was anything I could change it would be a better start. In both moto’s I came around in the 1st lap in 10th then worked my way up into the top 5. But with all the training, riding, fitness, I felt really good out there, wasn’t tired, pushed the whole way and played it smart. I’m ready to keep on pushing towards that box haha almost there just need a little bit of a better start and its on.

How is it back on the bike with your wrist injury?

Wrist is feeling good, was a little sore every now and then but they did a really good job with my surgery and, I’ve been laying down the hammer lately!

Coming into outdoors did you change up any of your training?

Yeah, training this year has been a bit different. Been focusing a lot on my nutrition, training hard on the road bike, been putting in super long moto’s, and really just stepping it up.
