Back in March, a young rider from Canada killed himself in a Spokane jail after he got busted by the DEA in a sting. He hung himself overnight.
He was busted flying a stolen helicopter loaded with 150 kilos of marijuana (so about 350 lbs) over the US/Canada border.
I remember seeing Sam Brown and thinking how awesome this kid was because he built this sweet wooden wheel as a part of a free-ride course. You can see it and him in New World Disorder 3...I've got a copy if you're really itchin to see it.
I always kept my eyes & ears open hoping this guy would hit the DH or 4X circuit...too bad.
