1.What's your Name, Age, And where do you currently reside?
Nick- Nick Hammer, 28 years young, living in Petaluma CA.
2.Do you have any hook ups?Also What is your bike set up?
Nick- I ride for Solid Bikes and Thrillseeker Brand. Currently on a 21" King Cobra frame with the 8.666 bars, Solid stem and pegs, Primo fork, cranks, seat and grips, Animal clamp, headset and pedals, Zorg sprocket, G-sport wheels and Fit tires. Simple, lightweight and smooth.
3.Tell us a little how you got into riding and what kind of riding do you enjoy most?
Nick-I started out racing my uncle used to take me to a nearby track when i was about ten. Haven't stopped since except for getting hurt. After racing for a few years i started noticing other kids in town that rode, we got jumps going in Brian's yard and pretty much learned all your basic moves and bike control. Jumps got plowed, people moved on and now i enjoy the concrete park and ride mainly there and the streets.
4.Do you have any favorite spots or recent memories of spots you enjoyed?
Nick-San Fran as a whole is going to be my favorite place to ride, so many things left to do there the possibilities are endless. I also had an amazing time in AZ. with some other dudes from the Solid team. AZ. has SPOTS for days...
5.If you could change anything about bmx what would it be and why?
Nick-It seems to be getting a little emo and serious, everyone needs to relax and have fun. Worry about what your doing, not what i'm doing.
6.Who inspired your style of riding and who did you look up to coming up in the game?
Nick- Soil, Domination, Blueprint, any of the Ells vids. Joey Garcia, BF, T1 dudes, all the real G's you know.
