As one of Torker’s first sponsored racers, Kevin was the rider responsible for debuting the Torker MX to the world in the pages of BMX Action Magazine in 1977, a moment that brought national attention to both the bike and the brand.

Kevin’s success on the track played a major role in establishing Torker as a legitimate race company, spreading its reputation among racers, tracks, and bike shops nationwide. His results spoke loudly, earning him the California State BMX Championship and a victory at the NBA Mongoose Grand Nationals while riding for Torker.
