The young Californian came across to the UK this year but found the step up to EL racing a bit much. Allerted by Graham Jones and James Grieves that Eric had British roots, Glasgow fought off competition from Edinburgh and a few other clubs to sign him on a 3 point PL average.Eric has been riding since a young age, taking up speedway when aged only 11. He has a couple of international appearances for the USA under his belt but by far his biggest achievements so far must be the 1999 Unisted States Junior Championship an the 2003 USA U-21 Invitational Championship.
A full throttle rider, Eric should be a very handy acquisition at reserve for Glasgow on what is, in all honesty, an unrealistic 3 point average. His cheeky smile and easy manner have already made him a big favourite amongst the young ladies!.
