About a year ago they found a tumor in my head it it was cancer. Three days later they took it out and then I had a couple seizures so they put me in a coma for four days. With all of that done I was paralyzed on the left side of my body and I couldn't talk. I'm getting to walk and I can talk some but never take for granted what health you have. I am blessed so blessed to still be alive and I am thankful for that but two days before it I didn't think about cancer or my health. I thank God for the ability to think about it now

Everything said in this video is so spot on. I've been digging and riding trails since I was 15 or so and I guess to begin with it was all about the riding. Now I'm in my thirties and can honestly say digging is as much fun and probably more important than riding. It definitely helps me get through the low times, it is a form of therapy to me too. The best feeling in the world is seeing the grins and smiles on peoples faces when they ride trails I've helped to build. It doesn't matter if you're throwing sick dumped 3's or just able to get through, the satisfaction of seeing people enjoy your hard work makes everything worth while. Digging trails is certainly an art form, it's a form of sculpting, an expression of yourself in some ways. This was the best day of my life - vimeo.com/136907109 Hopefully there'll be more like it :)
