    Not sure if this has been posted here before...

    I know I for one moan and give out about such unimportant things like having no money or give out about my car or something, well watch this former Bmx champion, powerful stuff to say the least!

    Probs going to sound like an arse, and got nothing but respect for the guy (very moving video etc.) but at least he paralysed himself doing what he loved doing, nobody forced him on the bmx. Sucks to see anyone in that state. Plenty of people born like that who never get a chance to experience anything... but just gotta get on with life.

    I get ya 100%, but I think what sets him out is the fact he had evething in te first place, now nothing, how he's so strong in that change over is what's unreal when I watch it!

    We i was in my teens riding Dirt jumping BMX Steven and his brother used to live in Bidford upon avon and race BMX it was later that steven moved on to Dirt jumping and Martin stayed racing.

    He moved to the states to push his riding further, i still see his brother when i'm back in the UK.

    This was such a shame and trust me when i say Steven is the most flamboyant person you will meet.

    Fez, i lived in Henley, and one of my best friends is Wesley New from Entity board sports, and i went to St bene's in Alcester and that was my local town, used to have a blue M3 with D12FTS with the plate as my road car.

    Its always a small world and people like Steven are worth the world :)
