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 it has been a while

Well it has been a while since my last blog and a happy new year to you too!

I have had a good few months of off season doing all sorts of things from snowmobiing in the mountains to surfing the rugged coastline of vancouver Island and it has been good to catch up with the family as well.

At the moment I am sitting in munich working on some good old jet lag with 2 hours of sleep last night I fear that today will be a struggle. All i want to do is go for a xc ride but since it is snowing here I guess I will just have to settle for the gym! baa I dont know about you but I hate the gym I would much rather be outside digging holes or side cutting single track with a pick.

So ya may wonder why I am in munich in the snow? well I will tell you, I am here for the white style slopestyle contest in leogang austria.It is a slopestyle course built out of wood and snow, and it has been a few years since I've rode my bike in the snow so I am quite anxious to go and play.

anywho im gonna hit the gym and wash down my jet lag with some fine german beer
