Brian is a name synonymous with excellence in cycling, boasting a multi-time World Champion title and a well-deserved spot in the BMX and Mountain Bike Hall of Fame. In this exclusive interview, I had the privilege of delving into the life and experiences of this legendary rider.

From his early days as a BMX racer at the age of 4 to conquering disciplines like Downhill, Dual Slalom, 4X, Mountain Biking, Enduro, and even Sprint Eliminator, Brian's mastery of the bike is nothing short of awe-inspiring.

With a racing career spanning two decades, Brian has an impressive list of achievements, including nine national championship titles, six UCI World Cup wins, and four UCI Mountain Bike World Champion titles. It's safe to say, the man is a living legend.

But that's not all... He's also a published author, co-authoring the acclaimed "Mastering Mountain Bike Skills," now in its third publication and available in multiple languages.

In 2008, Brian received the well-deserved honor of being inducted into the BMX and Mountain Bike Hall of Fame, solidifying his status as one of the all-time greats in the cycling world.

Currently residing in beautiful Laguna Beach, CA, Brian continues to inspire riders and enthusiasts alike.
