Austin McKan didn't start out racing bikes. Instead this young man enjoyed skateboarding. Born in Springfield, Missouri Austin didn't get the bug for BMX until his dad Greg took him to a Jason Carnes clinic at a local track. The next year Austin began racing. But, this isn't a fairytale story where he came out destroying folks, in fact it's the complete opposite. Austin had to work at BMX to improve. He says I didn't realize I could get fast until last year. He's thankful for having the support of his parents Greg and Teresa McKan but also the support of his BMX family and friends like Nic and Donovan Long, Bubba Harris to all the tracks in Missouri. Currently Austin is terrorizing everyone in the 21-25x class with his speed and skill. He says don't count him out when it comes to going pro again. We recently spoke about his early days of racing, family, and his love for bow hunting. Enjoy.
