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.

Man had a good day yesterday

April 22, 2010

Man had a good day yesterday.I bought a sea doo for tow in surfing and loaded it on the allready packed trailer and headed to laguna through some gnarly rainstorms. I met up with the rads crew for their weekly ride which was real fun and i definitely needed it cuz I really have been slacking on my fitness. I worked so hard getting in shape for nepal and after i got home I was so busy trying to finish my house to sell it, I didn't even get one ride in. wah wah I know but anyways it was good to get my ass kicked by a bunch of old dudes!

After the ride they cooked up some killer burgers on the grill that they have been using for over 15 years! man were they tasty. After that I went backed to my bud stens house and grabbed a shower and got in my truck and drove to vegas woop woop.

So today the mayhem starts, its my bros stag and it gonna be good times
