John Piant | 2017, Pioneer
Hailing from St. Louis, Missouri, John Piant is known in the BMX World as one of the original “Missouri Outlaws” - and in our own history books, he is the most legendary of them all. Throughout his career, John raced for such legendary brands as DG and Huffy. While he was always a valuable asset to any of his sponsors, Piant was also a huge role model for many of us here tonight.
