here is why i wanted the world record, and here is why im going to give it another try (if i can get a motor this weekend)
i have been stuntriding for over 3 years now, and never have i been anyone important in this sport. i finally have something to offer this sport (maybe), i would like to be a world record holder for alot of reasons. its recognition, its something my parents and family members can be proud of , considering theyve been tellin me ive been wasting my time for the last 3 years. to gain sponsors. and my own personal enjoyment, plus something i can tell my kids when im older. the biggest reason is to be somebody in this sport, i have spent so much money that i didnt have or shouldnt have spent on my bike, and never paid off until i became a name in this stoppie thing. and then when i moved up here my teammates pushed me and pushed me along with thew and a little help from gorka. i almost feel like i owe it to them to prove them they werent wasting their time on me. never have i wanted to be someone in something that i love doing. i love competing and i love meeting new people. when i see some complete strangers (and this happend in texas) walk by and recognize gorka , thew, chauncey, dan jackson, patrick , ant mist and start asking them questions or takin pictures of them, and im just sitting there almost invisible to them like "hey, i can roll far stoppies", but they still dont care, i feel hurt, that all this time ive put into it was wasted, so there are alot of reasons i want to break or hold this record, and thats simple, its to be somebody.

You'll carry the pride of your accomplishments with you every day, everywhere you go and apply it to everything you ever do.The trophy stays home and collects dust. Everyone knows who you are, believe me. If they don't, let me take a moment and tell them : "Yo, everybody, Ryan's in here. You know, the guy from DV8 who rolled over 1000 feet. " For the record, I'll tell everyone out there that I haven't documented myself rolling that far. I stopped breaking out the tape after my 938. If it means anything, I'm proud of you. It takes *****, son. As far as everyone at the tables talking **** with each other...Don't feel left out. You have to realize that we've done so many shows and contests with each other that we have a "relationship" almost. We spend the first couple hours catching up, not getting to know. You'll see, it will all make sense later. Just know you're part of the family.

Ryan I know what this ment/means to you and I over heard phone calls with the old man. NO ONE and I mean NO ONE can take anything away from you. You got skills and even though I get bored and don't watch you got the skills don't give up. You moved up here for a reason, and no matter what all the people that have ever met you are glad and understand what this sport means to you. Keep t up

isn't that cute.
when i was little, my father was famous, he was the greatest sumarai in the empire, and he was the shaolins decapotator. he cut off the heads of 131 lords, it was a bad time for the empire. the shaolin just stayed inside his castle, and he never came out. people said his brain was infected by devils. my father told him he would forget about the killings. he wasn't scared of the shaolin, but the shaolin was scared of him. maybe that was the problem. then, one night, the shaolin sent his ninja spies to our house. they we're supposed to kill my father. but they didn't. . . . . THAT WAS THE NIGHT EVERYTHING CHANGED

I think it is bad *** that you both were trying at the same time. I can't say I know Thew as a good friend, but the little time I have spent with him and the little I know about him, I'm sure you two fed off of each other and still had fun.
You'll get it, motors don't count when they blow. Get it fixed and you're a shoe in.

Craig Jones We just rode with Craig Jones at a show last week in Europe (Athens, Greece) - he was cool **** to us, but I dont really think he knows whats going on in the US in terms of endos - we didnt really spill the beans about the 900+ footers. Anyway - his style is different than ours - he comes in pinned and rolls low (instead of near vertical) - he claims he could roll farther but his Buell will only do 130. Regardless the guy is smooth but I've seen u chucklers roll and you obviously got him by the sac. The europeans like to see **** on papes - so If the record is set again through Guiness - it's the only real way to push them to try and re-set the bar.
go for it boys
PS - no circles or no handers outta Jones last week
PS PS - the crowd liked us WAY better (no dis to Jones)
