Aaron Bradford - Professional Cyclist

(Spokane Examiner - Sept. 28, 2009)

The best performance of the evening has to go to Aaron Bradford of the Onsite Ultrasound and Enduro team (#109) who finished 41st. Why am I jumping up and down for #109? Aaron bunny hopped every obstacle on the course. Bradford is also a professional mountain biker. Unlike the twigs you find in mountain biking, the artificial and natural obstacles are 18 inches to 2 feet high. In cyclocross, you either jump off your bike (dismount) and step over each barrier with your bike slung over your shoulder or bunny hop over the barrier while riding your bike. Bunny hopping is not an easy feat. He successfully bunny hopped over every obstacle except for one where he wiped out. Aaron Bradford, you are the star of Cross Vegas!
