Om Colin Edwards
Colin Edwards er en amerikansk motorsykkelracer, han ble født 27. februar 1974, han er også kjent som "Texas Tornado". som konkurrerte i verdensmesterskapet i MotoGP. Han konkurrerte for Factory Yamaha- og Honda-teamene og ble en to ganger World Superbike-toer. Edwards kunngjorde at han trakk seg fra racing i 2014.
Fødestedet til Edwards er Conroe, TX. Edwards ble opprinnelig utsatt for en minisykkel i en alder av tre av sin australske far, Colin Edwards Sr., som selv er en motorsykkelamatør. I en alder av fire deltok Edwards i sitt første motocrossløp. I løpet av de neste ti årene steg Edwards til toppen av den amerikanske ungdoms motocross-rangeringen, og tok hjem flere seire i lokale, regionale og nasjonale konkurranser i klassen 50cc til 80cc.
I en alder av 14 ga Edwards opp motocrossløp i 1988 på grunn av distraksjoner fra typiske ungdomsansvar. Edwards var motivert til å prøve roadracing, likevel, etter at han og faren dro til et motorsykkel-racing-arrangement i Nord-Texas i 1990. Edwards begynte å delta i amatørracing-racing lokalt i 1991, men han avanserte raskt til nasjonale konkurranser. I hver amatørkonkurranse han deltok i det året, var han ubeseiret og tok hjem mange nasjonale amatørtrofeer. Edwards prestasjoner var gode nok til å skaffe ham en sponset tur med South West Motorsports, og han ble profesjonell rett før 1992-sesongen startet.
En fabrikkposisjon med Yamaha i Superbike World Championship ble utvidet til Edwards i 1995. Han endte på sjetteplass totalt i Superbike World Championship i 1996, en betydelig forbedring. Edwards hadde et dystert 1997 etter å ha måttet trekke seg fra konkurransen på grunn av skader han hadde fått i Superbike World Championships femte runde. Heldigvis klarte Edwards å komme til enighet med Honda om å konkurrere i Superbike World Championship i 1998 ombord på RC45-motorsykkelen. I tillegg til å vinne sine første internasjonale solo-seire med en dobbelseier på Monza og sin tredje seier for sesongen på Brands Hatch, endte Edwards på sjetteplass sammenlagt det året.
Colin Edwards ledet Honda til en historisk Double-1-2 finish i 1999 av ledende kollega Aaron Slight hjem to ganger på Brands Hatch. Edwards avsluttet sesongen på andreplass sammenlagt, bak vinneren Carl Fogarty. Etter diskvalifiseringen av Yamaha-rytteren og poengleder Noriyuki Haga på grunn av en positiv narkotikatest, vant Edwards Superbike World Championship sammenlagt i 2000 mens han kjørte den splitter nye Honda VTR-1000 SP1/RC51 tosylindrede motorsykkelen. Troy Bayliss, en Ducati-rytter, beseiret Edwards i 2001-løpet, men Edwards opprørte Bayliss i 2002 ved å vinne mesterskapet i sesongens siste løp i Imola, Italia. Med 552 poeng i 2002-sesongen, eier Edwards også rekorden for flest poeng i en enkelt sesong.
