Darren Berrecloth

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.

Well howdy ho there

January 27, 2011

Well howdy ho there! I just got back from my buddies wedding in mexico at a all inclusive resort. Wow it took me 2 days to feel normal, way too much eating and beverage intaking. I don"t know how people go to all inclusives all the time, I felt like a caged animal just sitting around by the pool. Luckily for me I knew there was surf nearby so I was able to get a couple nice surf sessions in. My buds wedding was super nice and casual. Now I am back at home and I got some work to do to get back into shape. So today I started with some yard work, then went motoing with stevie smith for a hour and a half then did some work around the house and finished with swimming for 30 mins straight in the pool. I think I'm well on my way to be back in tip top shape if I keep this up.

I have some super rad new to let out of the bag soon but not yet.

So stay tuned yo.
