How long after that did you learn Truck Drivers? About six months after.

What tricks are on your list to learn next? I have just mastered the tailwhip so tailwhip airs are next on the list.

If you could ride with any pro for a day which one would you choose?  I am lucky as I ride with some really awesome riders at Rampworx (Anton McGuirk, Franny Wright and Leon Perkins to name a few…  If I could ride with an International rider it would have to be Drew Bezanson.

Have you ever had to take a break from biking due to an injury? No!

Thanks Dylan!

BMX Groms interview with Lili a Girl BMX riderIt’s really sweet to see a grom girl BMX rider who is totally into the sport. Keep reading and find out why Lily got into BMX, where she rides and what inspires her.

How did you get into BMX?

Lily: I went to summer camp at Joyride 150 and I really liked biking so I bought my own bike and got a membership. And I now ride every day. The bike was like $400 and I got a bunch of new parts to make it lighter. I wouldn’t be able to clear big ramps or do good tricks; it’s just harder with a heavy bike.

How long have you been riding?

Lily: 6 months

What are your favourite places to practice?

Lily: Joyride 150.

Who inspires you to ride?

Lily: Drew Bezanson’s really inspiring. He is my favourite rider.

And your favourite female rider?

Lily: Peta Shephard.

How about competing, did you enjoy the Spring Toronto BMX Jam?

Lily: Yeah, it’s been really fun!
