I started BMX around 5th grade. I started dirt jumping with my friends and quickly started to mimic the older riders and pushed myself. Eventually I started racing and did very well as a young teenager. I quit once I got a car and started driving, however in 2009 I was trying to get my son to ride without training wheels....I made the deal that I would get a bike and he would give up the training wheels. So it started again. We have been racing for several years now and currently operate on the Team Local Legend BMX crew. This is the place where I fit in with my aggressive riding style and dirt jumping roots.

My name is Brady, I began riding BMX around September or October of 2018 at my local track, Capital City BMX in Raleigh NC. I became a USA BMX member on April 17 of 2019 which is also when I began actively racing. I love racing as well as helping volunteer out at my local track. As of April or May I have been racing an SE Ripper Jr. I like all the different brands and look forward to trying out new and different things. I enjoy being around the people, riding with different people and just hanging out with other BMX riders. Update 01/20/2020 I changed to a redline as well as a supercross frame in December (redline) January (supercross). I use bombshell, answer, helium, promax, vee rubber, tioga, redline, supercross, Troy Lee, Fox, Vans, ODI, SE, and a few other parts company/clothing companies. I moved up to intermediate on September 1, 2019. I'm looking forward to the 2020 season. Update 09-24-2020 I am currently riding a Supercross which has been my favorite bike this far. I am now on Team Liberty. I have been riding for team Liberty since 05-09-2020. I have worked really hard this year to get where I'm at and I will continue to get better. I had a little set back at the 2020 NC State Race due to getting pushed out in turn one and ending up with a DQ. I however am getting back on and moving forward.
