How many of you are dedicated all by yourself?

I've been stuntin about 1 1/2 yrs now off and on. I've mostly been ridin and pushin myself but for What? Nobody anywhere near me (within 3 hrs) is in to it and dedicated like i am. There are only two guys in MS that I know of (Vertical Extremes) I mostly ride for myself and by myself which takes alot of the fun away. Hell i don't even think anybody within 70 miles of me can even do standups, let alone freestyle.

Just wondering is anybody else in this situation & If so what do you do to keep motivated?
By the way I live in right in the center of MS if anybody is close.

You should talk to Armenian. I think he feels the same way. So I gues competitions are like stunt camp in a way. A chance to get away with other good stunters and to maybe get some pointers.

Re: How many of you are dedicated all by yourself?

i ride alone for the most part.

there are shitloads of cool riders here in my area, but it's real hard trying to get a ride out there to ride with them, 90% of my practice time is by myself.
