Jon Kearns and the dodgy BMX ramp

  • Summary

  • When I was a kid, in South Africa in the ‘80s, there was a gravel BMX track next to the local sports fields. After a few years of destroying our knees and elbows, it disappeared and we migrated to road and mountain bikes - but it turns out BMX itself lived on.

    Jon Kearns is an Australian freestyle BMX’er who got into the sport as it revived itself in the early 2000s, and now it's a few weeks away from its Olympic debut.

    In this episode of The Most Fun You Can Have on a Bike, I speak to Jon about that riding for the love of the sport, the value of community, and freestyle BMX’s path to professionalism.
