What inspires you to compete?
The desire to be the fastest man. To get to the bottom and know that you are the quickest person to get down a mountain. More more importantly to me it's about having fun.
What has been your most embarrassing moment?
I once ripped my pants right across the crotch during an accident...certainly got me some attention though!!!
Describe your style...
Fast and Technical. I'm a groundie, I have little interest in jumping a bike, if the wheels are on the ground, then you have forward propulsion...if they're in the air, they don't. Simple physics really!
Music?
Before a race, very mellow chilled out music, maybe no lyrics maybe even classical. This allows me to clear my head of any thoughts of the race, the more you think, the more you crash. It should come naturally to you, but during a ride...Dragonforce is an old favourite of mine!!!
Why do you like this sport?
Not really sure, I don't think you can "like" Downhill...you simply try it and either hate it...or become addicted, I'd say I'm more addicted to the sport than I like the sport.
