Travis Pastrana

He is just a man living a dream, riding a motorcycle for a living. Travis Pastrana, the valedictorian of FMX, started his career at age 4 with a one-speed Honda Z-50. Shortly after the trophy case filled up fast as the victories poured in at National Amateur contests. Pastrana is definitely a guy that is used to success; graduating high school 3 years early with a GPA of 3.9 and at age 14 held the title of Youngest World Freestyle Motocross Champ (can we say over achiever?). Don't think for a minute that all of this success has gone to his head; Travis is known as being Mr. Nice Guy. Since turning pro in 1999, Travis has become a permanent fixture in the FMX world bringing in wins left and right; including winning 5 of the past 7 X Games Gold Medals, executing some of the most daring tricks, and tearing it up at the Dew Tour - all while remaining a fan favorite. Some of Pastrana's most recent achievements include: Winning 1st place in the Denver Dew Tour- 2006, scoring the 2nd place win in Louisville Dew Tour- 2006, and 1st place in the Red Bull X Fighters- 2004.
