| early years |
I found that jumping obstacles was challenge and enjoyful, then I saw the Bob Haro Show
after that I knew what I wanted - to get into BMX and that was around 1977.
My first bike was a 20" Schwinn which I set up with Moto Mags, singe seat instead of the banana seat that
came with it. I also tore off all reflectors and put knobby tires on the bike. |

In 1988, after the finals in Los Angeles, I got out of the team. I have got injured and
recovered very slow. Doing contest all the time was starting not to be fun. |
