Just a warning this is probably gonna be a novel....So read it if you want.. if you dont ohh well...

Well today I took sometime out and went out and seen Ryan Crooks Memorial. I was so impressed...His parents did a wonderful job. It brought tears to my eye as soon as I pulled up. It was worth riding through a t-storm and the crazy winds to go see this..> Ryan we will be back on June 11th...

So I sat there for about 2 hours and have had some time to reflect on somethings..

And Reflect on somthings that bother me about so called friends and family.. PLease read all the following... This is not directed to any one person or a stunt group.. this is just real life.. if it applies to you then Im sorry its just my Feelings...

Definition of a family.. Someone who will be there for you no matter what through thick and thin. Will Love you no matter what. Wont turn there back on you. and sticks up for you. doesnt feel the need to bash you behind your back to make them selfs look better.

QUESTION 1. Are we as a stunt group a Family.

Answer: Yes we are... true to the fact that jack And I (Droptop) have arguments and fights and we cuse each other out and we tell each other to get fu(ked on occasions. but we never have nothing to hide.. He will never smile in my face and then walk away and then talk ****. He will say it to me.. Preacher does not always support me in what i do, espically when it is wrong.. he will get in my *** with the quickness..he doesnt fake it.. nor has he ever.. And have I ever gotten pissed at both of these guys at some point and time. Yes I have... But you see we are strong and no matter what we accept each others strengths and weaknesses..

Question 2. Are the riders in downriver who we ride with and call friends are they family?/

Answer: NO. This is my problem...Everyone seems like they have to bash on the next rider to make themself look better...and then when they come up you smile in there face and act like you never said anything. You act like your there best friend. At least be a grown man and say how you feel right to them.> Or maybe its because you will need a favor or a part down the line.. so you might need to take advantage of the person down the road.
Funny thing about that is the bike world is so large once you speak on someone.. its out.. its all over before the day is up..and if you dont think it got out your sadly mistaken. The only time a majority of people act like they are family is when they need something.. then there back to trying to pump there ego.

Question 3. By bashing someone else.. does it make you look like a great person

Answer: Probably not.. Chances are your gonna need that person down the line some how some way.. the bike world is too small... so when you have to ask that person for help your gonna look stupid..

Question 4. Is any rider in Michigan that damn great that they are making millions. there fore having the right to walk around like they are god...

Answer: HELL No... I dont care if people get pissed about this or not... I would say there is only 1 or 2 riders in michigan that are competion riders... if you think cause you can sit in the parking lot and do 50 circles and your the best..LOL.. Your seriously clowning yourself.... I havent seen a rider come up since I was in scooter trash that could compete in the XSBA and even place... Truth Hurts..
What because you think you are that great and you tote your bike around.. and show off you are a superstar... Lets face the facts.. we have all destroyed 1-3 bikes maybe more... Has anyone made enough money to go buy 3 brand new bikes and replace them.. Probably not.. Not from stunt riding..LOL... Hey but we sure got enough egos down here..I wonder if an ego would by me a bike, house , cars... ect.....

I have seen and heard enough **** for the last 4 years of being in the bike world. I have seen great riders. I have seen shitty riders. and some okay.
When I first bought my bike it was because my FRIENDS had one. and we all rode together, joked and had fun...

Then came this stunt riding thing..I said hey this is cool... Why not be part of this... so Scooter Trash became home.. Yeah things were tight... Parties, 50s, bombs... even tho there was problems off and on.. people still had fun.. thats what it was about....everyone stook together.. everyone cussed each other out from time to time.. but you knew at the end of the show or weekend we were gonna have one crazy *** party and just have fun...
was there egos sure.. but not as bad as they are now adays..

Then a couple years went by.. and more and more people bought bikes... now everyones like i can be a stuntrider... Great.. I was so happy to see that .. the sport was growing... more people to have fun with...
Yeah right.. it turned worse yeah there was more people.. but then there was more egos...funny how that worked.... people forgot the purpose of this was to have fun.. and make friends...

So then theres me.. the infamous "Droptop" Funny how I played into all this downriver.... Im not saying im inncoent at all.. And I have had an ego in the past...
But this is one thing that I know for a fact is that I have a good heart.. I have helped so many people, be it with bikes, discounts, parts, picking peoples **** up.. what ever it may have been...
But people get mad when I get something given to me, get a new sponsor, make a new buisness relationship with another group..
But they still come and smile in my face...
But Dont think that i dont know you talked **** about me behind my back.. The thing is I am humble.. Its not like I am hurting for anything in life...I am a strong believer in helping everyone possible..sometimes too much where it ties up too much of my time...

Funny thing is people are mad cause I got invited into the Ruff Ryders.. but you see no one down here had **** to say to me.. they just call and say hey can i get this part...
but then as soon as they get what they need.. they say he cant ride..
Okay.. Once again.. when has anyone ever heard me say some **** like I was great on my stunt bike..
**** I did say I was great on my 50 and any day would go head to head with anyone...


This is my point... Everyone says they support everyone else.. Lets ****ing show something for once in this stuntworld.. do you think by being mad that Droptop is in ruff ryders or he runs aob and people ride for him, that its going to get you any farther in life..

Let me tell you STUNT RIDING IS A HOBBY FOR 99% of you in michigan if you think different.. Keep lying to yourself...

IF we really are a so called family and we stick together down here... lets show it..

Wanna face reality... Will we loose another rider this summer.. chances are very high.. Then we all act like we were some great family.. NO... Lets act like a family before then...

Stunt Riders are the minority.. the police hate us..and not many places accpet what we do.. So if you think your that great think again........

For once cant people be happy for eveyone regardless how great they are
!!!!LOL

Scooter Trash And I made a step in the right direction this year.. Schwartz and I know what I am talking about in this paragraph...

Everyone please drop the EGO's.. We ride togther.. Were suppose to love each other....and HELP each other...

Cant everyone just get along..

I didnt know stunt riding was suppose to be like dating some crazy *** girl.. drama every damn day...

BTW i didnt get in a fight with any rider to make me write this.. I just thought it was time we all grow up.. make a unity.. ride our bikes..

If not what the **** do we hang out with each other for.. to look stupid....

 

Instead of all the negativity.. why dont people take the time to promote this ride and memorial for ryan....

Ryan was never like this.. I would have rather rode with him.. than some great stunt rider.. He was real.. He loved everyone...

I bet hes sitting up there in heaven just shaking his head at all this dumb **** that takes place...

Ryan you will never be forgotten... Glad I got to spend some time with you today at your memorial...

 

Well said ..................we need to stop all this bull **** and just ride. As much as I hate to say it, this summer is not going to be like last year. We are not going to be a close family like before. Everyone is worrying about who rides with who and what name ur reppin. Lets all just show some luv for one another, support each other and stop the BS. We need each other to lean on so that we can all become better riders. Thats all I gotta say.....................4 R'S. :YEAH Anyone find me a bike yet??????

 

Thats what i am exactly saying..

It shouldnt be about what name your reppin...

I never gave a damn.. about the name that was on me... I just wanted to ride with my FRIENDS... And hang out and party... I never knew that a name made you.. I thougt who you were is who made you as a person......

I Hope all the little kid **** stops..... I swear its like were in a day care sometime...

I didnt try to get in the middle this time.. But ive had enough.....

Lets drop the egos and ride!!!

 

OG summer check in. Any OG's riding this summer? I got 80 miles in last night , finally the rain stopped here in MO.
