Welcome to RiderMinus.com. I am amputee motorcycle racer, Shane Tacker. I lost my left leg above the knee in 2005 and returned to racing just 3 months later. I've been president of the Arkansas Hare Scramble Championship Series and was voted as rider of the year by that racing series for 2005. I continue to race as often as I can and placed 3rd in my class in the inaugural Amputee MotoX race at the 2007 Extremity Games-racing with a freshly torn achille's tendon! In 2008, I placed 5th at the event and was invited to race in the newly formed MotoX Adaptive event at X Games 14, where I took 7th. In 2009, I returned to X Games 15 and completed the event with a freshly torn ACL and MCL in my only knee. Along with my brother, Trav, I am the long standing promoter of Sturkie Road Harescramble - AHSCS racing series' oldest standing off road motorcycle race, now celebrating our 15th year for the event. Sturkie was awarded the prestigious AHSCS Race of the Year award for 2009! Currently I am resuming training for off road competition with a new focus on staying safe. My schedule for 2010 includes plans of running all events on the AHSCS.com racing schedule So, take a look around. I hope you enjoy what you find and, most importantly, if you know of anyone who may be helped by seeing what's here - pass it on! |
