My first membership was purchased in the sport of BMX racing in my home state of California in 1982. Like many others after high school, I left the sport for college. I found my way back after moving to Georgia from Hawaii to continue college. Since returning to the sport in 1995, I've held GA state titles as an expert 1996, 97, and 98. I retired for a few years, finished college built a house, got married, and started a family. Only racing on occasion, I truly returned to the sport in 2020-2021. I've won state #1 titles in 2021 and 2022. I also came in 3rd in the SouthEastern Regional Gold Cup series. I'm having the best time of my life and enjoying being a part of the sport of BMX. I enjoy encouraging others, every chance I get, to get involved with the sport. To my competition, I'll see you at the races......

My name is Brady, I began riding BMX around September or October of 2018 at my local track, Capital City BMX in Raleigh NC. I became a USA BMX member on April 17 of 2019 which is also when I began actively racing. I love racing as well as helping volunteer out at my local track. As of April or May I have been racing an SE Ripper Jr. I like all the different brands and look forward to trying out new and different things. I enjoy being around the people, riding with different people and just hanging out with other BMX riders. Update 01/20/2020 I changed to a redline as well as a supercross frame in December (redline) January (supercross). I use bombshell, answer, helium, promax, vee rubber, tioga, redline, supercross, Troy Lee, Fox, Vans, ODI, SE, and a few other parts company/clothing companies. I moved up to intermediate on September 1, 2019. I'm looking forward to the 2020 season. Update 09-24-2020 I am currently riding a Supercross which has been my favorite bike this far. I am now on Team Liberty. I have been riding for team Liberty since 05-09-2020. I have worked really hard this year to get where I'm at and I will continue to get better. I had a little set back at the 2020 NC State Race due to getting pushed out in turn one and ending up with a DQ. I however am getting back on and moving forward.

A true freshman to the sport, I started racing BMX January 8, 2022 at the age of 49, after desiring a little change in life. I can now say, it was a good decision. Proud husband, father, granddad, retired military veteran, local businessman, football and track and field coach and mentor to many, just to name a few. I consider myself a lifelong learner and obsessed with challenging myself with new ventures.
