Why BMX means so much to me

BMX, a sport that infatuates all of the people reading this article, I am addicted to this terrific sport and I will keep riding until my body gives out on me. I am going to try to explain why BMX means so much to me by describing the best day of BMX I had.

I wake, the alarm ringing in my ear, I get up and get dressed, I leave without breakfast not wanting to miss a minute of daylight. I arrive at the skate park greeted by my riding buddy. I stand there looking at the dirt jump to the side that I had ignored for so long I rode around the park in dream land wondering what would happen if I went at the ferocious double again. Would it leave me bloody and bruised as it did once before? After getting used to my bike I decided that I could no longer have that doubt in my mind, the thought that “what if I had went for it”. In such a hurry I crunched down on the pedals towards the jump I overcome the first small double standing in between my fear and me. Unsure weather I am going to make it I crunch down on the pedals once more to get that extra speed. I am sent soaring into the air by the lip as I am in the air my adrenaline is pumping and I am focused on achieving my goal. I have the down ramp in my sights. I point the bike towards it. I land and go over to the bench, hop off my bike and couldn’t help but let out my excitement with a loud “wooooooohooooooo!”

For me it is these moments that make regular life bearable, knowing that when I am riding it’s just me and whatever I want it to be. This is my life.
