Tell me about yourself. Who are you? How old are you? What class do you currently race? When did you start racing? How did you start racing? Etc.

I am Annabella Hammonds, I am 18 years old from Apple Valley, California. I race in the 17-20 expert women class. I was 7 the first time I went to the track. My family originally went so my brother could ride his strider bike. There was a kid I went to school with there and he wouldn't let me even try his bike because "girls don't race bikes". So my dad bought me my own race bike, and I was showing that kid that "girls do race bikes and beat boys" before too long!

Who is your favorite BMX Rider?

I've had a lot of pro favorites growing up, but many of them don't race anymore. I think my favorite now is to watch all of my teammates race. Getting to cheer for everyone's lap before and after my own, is one of the best parts.

Tell us about your favorite race and why?

Grands is my favorite. It's the best because everyone is there.
