As a professional rider, Eric competed in expert and professional level contests all across Canada and the USA. He earned a spot as a performer with Krusher Stunt Team, showcasing his talents and spreading his passion for riding to thousands of people throughout North America!
Fast forward 20+ years and now Eric is that older rider that aims to be a positive role model to current and new riders across Windsor Essex County.
