History: I’m what they call a true ATV racing track brat, in that I mean was born and raised around National ATV racing, thanks to my Dad, Gary Doherty. Actually I wasn’t always interested in the sport. Growing up I played all sorts of sports from dance to cheerleading, track to softball. Until one day I decided I wanted to start riding dirt bikes. So my Dad finally broke down and bought me an XR100. Soon after that I got a CR85 and started racing. I wound up getting hurt and having reconstructive knee surgery. So I had to take time off from riding. During this time Doug Gust and Cindy Hart were down in Florida training for the upcoming season. It was then I decided I wanted to try riding quads like Cindy. A week later the dirt bikes were sold and I was happily converted to a four wheels. Ever since 2005 I’ve been riding/racing quads. I’ve had my fair share of serious injuries, but that’s what makes me stronger. This sport is a way of life, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Ambitions: To win a Women’s Pro-Am Championship. Have a successful career and eventually have a happy family.
Turn Ons: A guy with an outgoing personality, great eyes and a nice smile. He also needs to be motivated, determined, and driven in life.
Turn Offs: Disrespect, selfishness, liars and cheaters.
Past Modeling: This would be my first.
I’d like to own: Enough money to be comfortable in life.
All girls should have: Confidence, independence and her best friends.
Favorite ATV event: All of the ATVA Motocross Nationals, but my favorite tracks are the creeks; Mill Creek, Birch Creek, and Muddy Creek.
Favorite rider: Gary Doherty, (my Dad). A lot of my riding style comes from him. He was such a smooth and wise rider. Also, Angela Butler… Not that an explanation is needed, but she has pushed women’s quad racing to the level it’s at today. She is also a great person, a true competitor and a good friend to many. Lastly, myself, of course! And I wouldn’t be able to do any of this without the wonderful help of my Mom & Dad and my sponsors; Champions Honda, Fox Shox and Walsh Race Craft.
