Have a good friend named Jason Heide, that plays basketball for the Huntsville flight. Helped him get into riding a couple years ago, at 6' 9" everything is small. He just got a KTM 520, and is a hellava nice guy. If the chance ever arose, introduce yourself!
He'll fit right in. EVERYBODY in Huntsville rides a pumpkin. Tell him to check out nariders. Those guys are all pretty cool, and some of 'em are even fast.
I don't fallow b-ball any, but I have a ton a respect for a nice humble, dedicated, consumate, aspiring pro athlete of any form! We all know it's long and hard, and every level is a new proving ground. He would get a serious kick out of being aproached by a DRN'er.
Hi ochster,
I’m located on the other side of the state, Killen area. My son raced at the Rocket City MX track before it was shutdown (the last location by the school torward Gurley). Raced at the Speedway when they done the Monster trucks too! It was rainy and most people stayed home. It was fun anyway. They need a new track over that way!!! Sounds like my KX500 would be a mini bike to your friend!!!
;)
He just sent me the update today, I'm assuming he would be staying near the team headquarters? He is just a rider, he has to be somewhat concious of his career priorties!
