🚨THE BEST TRIP EVER.
🇺🇸 Some trips are made to see new places.
Others are made by life itself, to show us who we are and how far we’ve come.
I was invited as a speaker on a Mighty Moe’s BMX Cruise 2025 to talk about BMX and my life — more than 42 years as an athlete and coach.
I shared where it all began, the journey, the struggles, the move to the USA, the victories, the hard moments, the falls, the comebacks… and the glories.
But none of this would mean anything without her.
My wife, present and strong, the most important person in this life journey. My foundation. My everything.
Without a doubt, it was the best trip of my life.
Almost everyone who played an important role in my career was there.
More than 90 people from the BMX world: athletes, officials Alice Bixier, track directors, leaders, and lifelong friends.
Being standing ovation applauded by all of you is something I will carry in my heart forever.
And as if that wasn’t enough, life surprised me once again.
My daughter showed up at the last minute with her boyfriend — who is also my athlete — and in that unforgettable moment, he asked for her hand in marriage. A feeling beyond words.
My main sponsor and his family were also there. kirk Morrison
A person who changed my life, opened doors, believed in me, and helped create so many opportunities. Today, we are more than partners — we are friends, brothers, FAMILY.
This moment was not just about BMX.
It was about life, gratitude, love, resilience, and purpose.
I leave this experience with a full heart, a light soul, and the certainty that everything was worth it.
My sincere thanks to Moses Tillmon Anita Tillmon for the invitation and to the entire team for the care, organization, LOVE and for making this moment possible.
Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey.
This comes straight from my heart. ❤️
