I come from nothing, a town of 300 people surrounded by corn fields and country living. Growing up, i pretty much rode by myself all the time because i didn't even know any other riders untill i was 16 or so. I built small dirt jumps and various jibs in my friends field untill i was old enough to drive to better places. I pretty much had no trends or influences growing up because i didn't even know that sort of stuff existed. This made me learn all kinds of weird tricks and dovelop a creative style. I had knee surgery in december and just pretty much now am getting over it, if anything it made me a better rider. I work at least 50 hrs a week usually, sometimes more. This about me section probably makes me sound like a jerk, but im a pretty nice guy and really can't get bmx off my mind. I think about it constantly and I ride as much as possible. I cant figure out whats posessed me (and my friends) to love this two wheeled machine as much as we do, but i think i like it that way.
