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.

Well my friends

February 2, 2011

Well my friends I am still not allowed to drop the deadly news yet but what I can say is that I love exploring and yesterday me and a bud just found a entire new sled area. It's pretty rad and I am pretty positive nobody has ever had a sled up there before. Other than that I have been building in my excavator a bunch in behind my new house and other places too. Making sure I have places to ride everywhere.


Gonna be taking off to argentina soon but unsure of when really since westerlund is waiting on getting it all dialled in.


Oh yah my shop is being built as we speak. It's gonna be a monster rad shop, in floor heating tv the works It's gonna make me go broke but who cares its my dream shop lol.


thats it for now folks.
