At age 17, outfitted with only a credit card, a dirt bike, and an old truck, Brian left his hometown of Omaha, Nebraska for Southern California with dreams of becoming the next big name in motocross. Brian's skills quickly impressed everyone he encountered, and he soon rode his way onto a Supercross Team. In a pivotal moment in 1997 at the Coliseum in LA, Brian made history and pioneered what is known today as Freestyle Motocross by "ghost riding" his bike across the finish line – astonishing the crowd, stunning the AMA officials, and setting into motion a new breed of competition.
Today, Brian is a decorated Freestyle Motocross rider with many X-Games medals to his name, including X Games Gold medal in Rally Cross. Brian has also dominated the off-road trucking world, taking both Lucas Oil Pro 2 Unlimited and Pro Lite Unlimited Championships, being named Lucas Oil Rookie of the Year in Pro 2 Unlimited, and taking home the Lucas Oil Driver of the Year. Brian's road to the top has not been without challenge. His career is marked by multiple near-death experiences, several broken bones, a lost kidney, and a severe spleen injury. In the end, it has been Brian's fearlessness and rebel attitude that has established him as one of the top talents and competitors in the sport.
