Apa yang membuatkan kau start riding BMX?
-Dulunya masa form 2 dengan sahabat2 kampung masing2 mencari identiti disebabkan bola sepak terlalu bosan, mulanya ikut wak klang main skate sampai sanggup kayuh ke tesco beli deck. Tak semenanya satu hari TV1 siarkan X-Games 2004 kat tv baru lah kenal BMX time tu tengok Colin mckay & Ryan Guettler serta merta terus terpikat & start dari tu terus cari basikal BMX

 

Park or street? Kenapa?
-Park, Street, Dirt, Racing atau Flatland semuanya ok sebab dulu masa start ride basikal ada satu je so basikal tu lah untuk Park, Street, Dirt, Racing & Flatland, one for all & all for one gitu. Tapi buat masa ni lebih kepada Park sebab faktor jadual masa yg agak padat

    The wait is over! Haro Malaysia Tour video is out!! Watch how Dennis Enarson, Tyler Fernengel, Mike Gray and Matthias Dandois killing the parks and streets in Malaysia. We hope that more and more riders could come over to our country and promote BMX here. #haromalaysiatour   “I’d been to Malaysia back in the early 2000’s. It was one of those trips where I saw three things: the airport, the hotel, and the contest area. I always wanted to go back to explore, and a decade later, the lure of a pro contest in a tropical country in Southeast Asia had me looking into tickets. Now was the chance! As team manager, I become responsible for a lot of things. I have to design a trip. Who to take? Where to stay? What if it rains the whole time? I see the whole trip unfold in my head a thousand different ways well before we even board the plane. I have to do a lot of research before I purchase those tickets…I can’t have this trip fail, and heading to a place that no riders really visit is pretty risky. But, at least the event would take up most the time anyway… First dudes on the trip were Mike Gray and Tyler Fernengel. They both joined the Haro team earlier in the year and it was their turn to hit the road. And as a bonus, they are young and inexperienced travelers that I hoped to introduce some culture to and give them a trip to remember. Matthias Dandois has traveled the entire world over and over again, but I was surprised to hear he had not yet visited Malaysia. Matthias is such a unique rider and he’s a positive guy to be around—he was coming for sure. Finally, Dennis Enarson got the call. We all know Dennis can ride any terrain, but he gets an automatic invite just for being the amazing person he is. We needed a filmer. After picking the crew, only one guy came to mind to join us and that was Christian Rigal. It’s invaluable to have a filmer the crew knows personally. And, the filmer is carrying around a heavy bag all day, filming try after try for sometimes hours, missing meals, getting dehydrated, and while we all enjoy the sunset, the filmer is usually getting a time lapse shot in and then has to stay up late logging footage. They are long days on the road and I knew Christian could handle the job as well as have a good time with us.” —Colin Mackay
