Greg Covert

My name is Greg Covert and I was born and raised in upstate NY. I have been racing ATVS since I was 11 years old and was crowned the XC2 pro-am champion and most improved rider in the 2016 GNCC series. The past few years I have just focused my efforts on our local series NYOA where I was crowned the overall champion in 2023 and runner up in 2024.

Once I looked into what the Fearless movement was all about I really thought about how racing has impacted my life for the better. It is so easy to follow your friends and peers down the road of drugs, alcohol and partying in your younger years of life. High school and college are the most important years of your life to shape your success as you become an adult. Some days are really tough and all you want to do is let loose with your buddies but having a hobby or extreme sport helps take your mind off of those things. Racing my ATV has kept me on a path to succeed and live a healthy drug-free life. I never had time for any of those activities!

An extreme sport not only is good for you physically but it is also great for your mental health. Nowadays a lot of people deal with mental illness and anxiety which is hard to overcome but getting outside and doing your favorite sport or just walking and breathing in the fresh air can be some of the best therapy. The sport of ATV racing not only helped me a lot but it also has kept our family really close which is another issue I see in todays world. We as a family all had to work together to make our race program successful and it took all of us to make it happen.

My goal is to spread the word of living a healthy and drug free life through my extreme sport of ATV racing specifically. Be open and honest with people on how it has helped me and my family stay so close over the years. I also want to make it a point that you don’t have to do a expensive sport like racing atvs but finding anything that you can put your mind and body to work will be super beneficial to your overall health.

I just love to race my four wheeler and I want to continue too do it as long as I can. It has become a major part of my life and something I look forward to everyday. Joining the FEARLESS movement is my next step in my success and any help that I can get to continue to live my dream is a huge plus. Very excited about the future and living the FEARLESS LIFE!!
