I´m Alex "struck by a lightning" Etzold and I have been born in Germany. Simply AZE. The name "Lightning" is a leftover of my apprenticeship as an electrician at the "Deutsche Bundesbahn" (German Railway). Had some electric strokes there.... Right now I´m studying mechanical engineering in Cologne. But as soon as I have some free time I grab my bike and go out for a ride. BMX is a sport with soul and philosophy for me. It´s a great Lifestyle. Furthermore, it is interesting to see BMX Freestyle growing. I have been addicted to BMX since 1989. I´m rather an Allrounder. I like to Ride Street, Vert and Dirt. Sometimes a little bit Flatland at the "Domplatte". Would be nice, if you leave a coment. greetz
