Demo 8

My name is Darren Berrecloth and i live in a small town called Qualicum Beach

I originally started riding bikes when i was a kid well what am I kidding everyone rode bikes when they were kids because we had no cars. The first real bike i had was a specialized rockhopper hard tail, and it didnt take me very long to destroy it, before i knew it the wheels

were bent the bars were bent and i did not have enough money to keep fixing it.

So my local bike shop convinced me to buy a bmx if I wanted to keep doing jumps So I did then I started racing and one thing led to another and here i am.

A professional freerider for specialized, travelling the planet searching for the sickest terrain and riding comps. I am currently tavelling a ton and am super excited to have the opportunities to explore the unkown and push my own limits everyday. I keep pinching myself to make sure its not a dream but yes it is reality and yes I do ride for the best bike company in the business.

hobbies; Snowboarding, snowmobiling, fishing, hunting, skiing, bmxing, motoxing, quading, wakeboarding, and building trails and stunts.

here i am in colorado again

July 28, 2010

here i am in colorado again but this time it is for crankwerx in winter park.

First day of practice went down today, which was decent weather until the thunder and lightning started.

The course is pretty basic with 6 obstacles in it, making it pretty simple and not much in sizeable stunts either. One of the builders for the course was riding it on his bmx..... need I say more? or have we really just went that far backwards?

Let me know your thoughts on this matter at my twitter page darenberrecloth
