My Interests

dirt biking, mountain biking, dirt jumping, skateboarding, snowboarding, wakeboarding, skydiving, martial arts/sparring, big trucks, fast bikes, loud bikes, loud music.....I guess basically anything that's annoying to the generally conservative america.I love the outdoors. I try to get away at least once a month. The Mendocino Forest is one of my favorite places to camp and ride. It's nice to enjoy a relaxing weekend away from the bars, the town, the responsibilities and just be in the forest riding dirtbikes, shooting, swimming, fishing, wheeling, partying and sleeping under the stars.
