Rider Bio:
Dieselbikes member "Headstand" is a
good example that you don't need to be young to enjoy freeriding. This
51 year old grandfather took up mountain biking at the age of 45 as a way to
bridge the long hot months between ski seasons. His first ride at
Lynn, on a rigid frame, was cut short by a massive endo resulting in a trip
to the hospital to sew his head back together thus tagging him with his
nickname. This injury did not stop him and the technical challenge of
Lynn Woods fuelled Headstand's return and continues to go bigger each year.
With his elegant trail flow and graceful crashes, Headstand brings a unique
level of camaraderie to our group that makes riding with him both fun and
challenging. |
