Hmmmmm… Yesterday!

What is your biggest pet peeve?
Well… I would have to say, people that are assholes… We live once, mang mang!
What is hanging on your wall?
I got some Sunday banners from Interbike; and I need some naked girls, yeah…
If you found out you only had 24 hours to live, what would you do with your last day?
I can’t really say what I would do, but I would want every type of hot girl—Asian, black, yellow, green… all them shits, haha!

When was the last time you thought, “This is crazy!”
When I was in South Africa! Those words came out of my mouth a lot while we were over there—just a crazy place with tons of things that you will not see anywhere else. Also, we stayed in a place called J-bay for two nights at the people’s house who made Billabong what it is today. Their house was right on this beach that happens to be the third best surfing spot in the world. Walking out onto the deck in the morning and looking out at the ocean was pretty nuts!
First CD you ever purchased?
Pretty sure it was Will Smith, “Boom Boom Shake Shake The Room.” Banger!
What is your biggest pet peeve?
People that forget their basic manners.
What is hanging on your wall?
A framed picture of my friends and me at Mt. Baldy from 2003.
If you found out you only had 24 hours to live, what would you do with your last day?
Have all my friends and people that I love around me and go to my favorite beach spot, have a barbecue, a few drinks, and kick back with a bit of Barchester!

“The Chronic” (Dr. Dre)
What is your biggest pet peeve?
People not saying “thank you” when you hold a door for them.
What is hanging on your wall?
A flat screen and a “Pulp Fiction” poster
If you found out you only had 24 hours to live, what would you do with your last day?
Nothing I’m allowed to say on this Web site, haha.

When was the last time you thought, “This is crazy!”
Every time my bike checks show up in the mail.
First CD you ever purchased?
Can’t remember what CD, but the first tape I bought was an old Tupac tape. Don’t know the title, but I remember the cover was red.
What is your biggest pet peeve?
Drama.
What is hanging on your wall?
Pics of my kids, a Jake Eary print he gave me, my “Ride BMX” cover shot, and 2hip plaques. Oh and a Nixion watch. Last year at Interbike I went up to rooftop just fuckin’ around and said “Give me that watch, son,” and he didn’t say anything, just took it off and handed it over. It was awesome! Rooftop is the best.
If you found out you only had 24 hours to live, what would you do with your last day?
Probably rob a bank and bury the money so my kids could have an easier start on life.
