ME!

I live in London, UK and i do Downhill and Dirt Jumping apart from that i also enjoy Snowboarding, Skiing, Water Skiing, Ice Hockey and Freeride. I try to ride as much as i can and try to go to new places all the time. I have 2 bikes one for Downhill and one for Dirt Jumping. I m in Sixth Form at the moment where i m studying Geography, Biology, Chemistry and i think they should have a subject on the lines of biking...:D

Q&A - Competition

How did you get started?

Well originally my mate started riding Cross Country and i was riding with him (i m still pretty good at it) but i wanted something more with a rush it makes it funner so i found Downhill and Dirt Jumping which were the best ones i liked also like Freeride and since then i just ride in those styles

List your competitive highlights:

Getting 4th at the bombhole challenge and racing first time is just so cool.

What are you planning for next season?

Well next year i want to race more, so i want to enter the UK bike park series, PORC series and Aston Hill series. I want to start riding 4X it looks pretty cool and i thing ill really like it.

What has been your biggest accomplishment?

Doing my first Dirt Jump its kind off scary but i love it now:D Beating my friend as i said before, Just riding everyday pretty much is great.

  I ride a Kona Stinky 2-4 and a Felt Expert for BMX racing. I have a 16 year old brother who rides a Kona Stinky Deluxe and a Felt Double Shot.
