Aiden Matsche

How old are you? Where are you from? When did you start riding?

I’m 9 years old and I'm from central Wisconsin. I started riding when I was 6 and I’ve loved it ever since.

What got you into the sport?

My grandpa purchased me a Honda 50. I then went to watch a race at Tigerton where I knew I wanted to compete at a higher level.

What is your favorite track?

Monster Mountain Mx.

Who's your favorite pro racer and why?

That's a tough one but I would probably have to go with Jett Lawrence. He is fast and love his style of riding.

What would you say Carter/Minor League Moto has helped you with the most?

Out of all the help, the biggest thing he has helped me with is proper feet position on the bike.

How has the transition from the 50 to the 65 been for you? 

Slower than I thought! I got super comfortable on my 50 and need to get that feeling on my 65. But I feel I am making good progress and will continue to work hard.

How was your first experience at Lorettas?

Wet!!! Overall it was an awesome experience. I was pretty nervous my first couple motos seeing it was my first time there. But definitely would like to go back.

What are some things you want to improve upon this season?

My overall confidence and my corner speed.

What are your goals for 2024?

To finish in the top ten finish at Loretta Lynn’s and more top 5 finishes at other Nationals throughout the year.

Last but not least, who would you like to thank?

God for keeping safe, Mom and Dad, my Grandpa's and Grandma's, Carter, Kendall and everyone else that has helped me along the way!
