Kye surveying his next dirt jump

A trail rider supreme, Kye’s smooth style has previously seen him crowned Dirt Jumping World Champion.

When he’s not jetting around the globe taking part in competitions, you’ll find him manning a digger and creating new trails back home, with Joy Division turned up to 11 on his iPod natch. Here's what you need to know about Kye...

D.O.B: 14/09/1981
Discipline: BMX Dirt

What’s the worst thing anyone’s ever said to you?
When I was at school all I wanted to do was ride my bike and people would always be telling me that my life would be a mess and that I needed to go out and get a proper job. That really sucked.

What’s your favourite word?
Savage. I use it at least once an hour.

What’s the best advice you can give to someone who wants to replicate your success?
Enjoy what you do. Follow the path that feels right to you. Seize opportunities when they come along.

If you could edit your past, what would you change?
There’s a few embarrassing crashes I’d like to delete. Also, I do wish I hadn’t messed around at school quite so much – I may have learned a bit more.

What single thing would improve the quality of your life?
Honestly? More money. I’ve got a great wife and a cool family but a bit more dosh in the bank would be nice.
