" I got a girl, I got a playstation and I got a fast car…"

Age: 22

Hometown: downtown new york, ich mein münchen.

Who are your sponsors? 55DSL, REDBULL, INTENSE, GRAVIS, powerbar,

Do you have a girlfriend? Yes I have…!sorry to all the ladyzzz in the house..

When did you start to race Mountainbikes? I actually started this year, I did some races in 99 just to see how it feels to ride 26”.

What did you do before? 20”= I use to race BMX for about 16 years!

What was you biggest succees so far? Winning the UCI BMX Worldcup in 96 was the biggest thing I ever won.300 pound benchpress.

Did you ever think about going to the USA an become a BMX AA Pro like some of the europeans? YEAH that was probably the dream of every BMX guy I guess!!? I was ready for the States but bad injury kept me away from it, I was out for one Season, and it´s hard to come back after such a long time without competition!so I became a pornstar what was a good experience…

How do you train for the races? Get layed the night before, ok I really don´t ride to much MTB for practise, but I always ride my BMX, it´s easy to go from 20” to 26” and you get the skills you need to ride the worldcup dual when you ride BMX, also there is no possibility to train on any MTB courses which are international standard!

Who do you train with? I ride with all the a-town locals and my girl. I don´t have one person to train with, I can practise with anyone cause I like riding my bike and that’s the importants thing…

What are you doing when you are not riding your bike? I got a girl, I got a playstation and I got a fast car… AIGHT??!!

What will you do in the winter? I am going to spend some time in the states, do some races and ride some trails, but I also think I need to do some endurance training f..k that but there is no way around it!

Descibe what it is like to race Dual!? Alright it´s like BMX downhill, 2 riders compete against each other, and it´s pretty much fun cause sometimes the tracks are filled with tricky jumps and there is a big HERAUSFORDERUNG!

Descibe a normal day in your life?! I don´t  have a normal day…

What should be changed in Germany and at the World Cup? The f..king gas is to expensive, no speedlimit anywhere, and the WORLDCUP tv coverage should be bigger!

What are your goals for 2001? kick ass, and eat more than my girl but there is no chance to be succesful.

Last words: god save da queen and my 20”
