Things you’ve changed up:
Been running pegs lately, I also switched up to the new Subrosa “guest” color (matte red).
Things you’re particular about:
I’m OCD about where my bars are. I make little marks on my bars to make sure it’s in the right spot at all times.
What’s it like having the same exact bike as Ryan Sher?
It’s pretty annoying actually. I picked up his bike a bunch thinking it was mine and when it came to loading the bikes into the bus, I would always put his in thinking it was mine then realize what I did and have to put mine in, too. It’s also cool cause it reminds me of a game I used to play on super Nintendo growing up called Double Dragon.
What’s been your favorite moment of the Japan trip?
All the nights we went partying but especially the night we went to the club and almost all got raped by Moses. Riding wise it would have to be the giant volcano night.
Now that you gave away your bike and have a month off, what will your days consist of?
Playing Wild West Pinball and Paper Toss on my iPod trying to beat Ryan Fudger’s score…but I’ll probably be doing that when I can ride again, too.
