BMXStunts: Tell us about yourself
Mike: I am a rider from Connecticut. I do a lot of Street, Mini Ramp and Dirt Jumping. I have been riding since 1992. Before I got into freestyle riding, I raced BMX at the local tracks. I am currently taking classes at Southern Connecticut State University. Plan on graduating and getting a job in the next few years. I currently work at a Volkswagen dealer.

BMXStunts: Who do you ride with?
Mike: Mostly whoever is around. It changes often. I go in phases, mostly though I ride with Rick Kraft, Mike Chareglio, Mark Kutuzny, Ed Simpson and Craig Cronan. I ride by myself a lot too when I get into weird moods and don't want to be around people. I think about things and enjoy the the quiet and sound of my bike moving along.
