Show Notes
Ian Thomas grew up in the northeastern United States where ATVs were essential tools for hunting and property maintenance.
As a youth, Ian and his cousins would sneak away to ride the 4x4 utility quads, joyously navigating them through mud repeatedly.
College and a serendipitous connection through football introduced Ian to sport ATVs. A teammate's father owned sport quads, and discovering a magazine featuring a 400EX solidified his interest.
After college, Ian joined the military and was stationed in the South, where he encountered the LTR 450. This experience deepened his passion for ATVs, making it a lifelong pursuit.
Ian's family later moved to the West, where the desert offered a new playground for racing. He got involved in WORCS and BITD, exploring these as new avenues to support fellow warriors.
