How is the BMX scene where you live?

BMX in Huntington Beach is alive and well! It’s definitely unique because you get to see many aspects of BMX. For example, it’s always rad being downtown HB on a Taco Tuesday night and you witness a large BMX flatland group with a really cool camaraderie, filled with legends like Eddie Fiola, Martin Aparijo, Dan Hubbard and many others! Then being down at Sheep Hills watching the young and older shredders continue the Sheep Hills roots! And of course being at my local skate parks watching the circulation of professional riders I look up to absolutely killing it!

How long have you been sponsored by SE Bikes?

Riding for the legendary SE Bikes has been awesome for the past 6+ years and continuing!

Did you ever race BMX?

I ended up racing a few times just for good laughs and a few bets I won! I was definitely the best out of the slowest riders! Ha ha!

Where is the best place that BMX has taken you? Why was it the best?

I had the opportunity to visit the Nile river, King Tut’s tomb, do a tail-whip in front of the pyramids of Giza, and ride and perform at the only skatepark in Egypt. It was definitely a great memory!

Which would you prefer, a web video part with 100,000 views or a full-page photo in a magazine?

I believe I personally value a full-page spread in a magazine just because it’s tangible and of course I love hanging stuff like that up!

What do you do when you're not riding?

That’s a loaded question! Considering I just had my daughter last month, it’s been an incredible journey becoming a father and of course filling the needs there. Outside of that, I definitely love riding motorcycles, camping, building ramps and other things, and of course being with friends and family enjoying life!

Any life plans after BMX?

That’s a great question considering I’ve had some great opportunities to pursue some awesome people in my and my family’s life to create some outside assets that’s eventually setting us up exactly where we want to be with time and finances. That way I can continue riding my bike and doing many things for pleasure. Life is definitely good in that area and we feel blessed!

BIKELIFE

#BIKELIFE has taken over the streets, and our SE Bikelife Team is at the forefront of the movement. With their positive influence, unmatched skills and social media presence, these guys have put the SE brand in front of millions of eyes.

What’s your Instagram name?

@toddlyons. Crazy, huh? Ha ha.

What do people call you? Your Instagram name or your real name?

People call me Todd or Wildman. Back when I was a kid, they used to call me the Toad. Ha ha.

How many bikes do you currently own? Which bikes do you consistently ride?

I have about 15 SE bikes in my garage. Right now my favorite is the Fast Ripper. I love blazin’ on that bike! I’d say that the Beastmode Ripper is a close 2nd and the Fat Ripper is my 3rd favorite.

How would you describe #SEBIKESLIFE?

It’s really just about being out on your bike and having fun. There are many other aspects to it like customizing your bike, doing crazy wheelie tricks, and riding with hundreds of your friends on rideouts. But at its heart, SE bikelife is about having fun on your bike. I’m proud to be part of this movement.

Who are some of the most famous people that you’ve met through riding bikes?

I suppose I’ve met quite a few over the past 35+ years of riding bikes. But I’d say that the ones that stand out at the moment are Marshawn Lynch from the Oakland Raiders, Chuck D & Flavor Flav from Public Enemy, and Travis Barker from Blink-182. It’s crazy to think that we have produced collaboration SE bikes for all of these guys.

What did you think about SE Bikes before you got sponsored?

I knew of SE from the early 80’s when my brother’s friends used to ride PK Rippers. The PK Ripper was the baddest bike on the block.

How did you get sponsored by SE bikes?

In the summer of 2002, I read on bmxmania.com that SE had been bought by ASI & they were going to resurrect the brand. So I went to Interbike that year & set up a meeting with the CEO, Pat Cunnane. I brought my BMX resume booklet and tried to impress him with my accomplishments. Somehow it worked! I became a sponsored rider for SE for about 2 years & then slowly transitioned into my current position of SE Brand Manager & Product Manager. I’ve been with SE now for nearly 17 years.

Who builds or works on your bikes?

I build them. And nobody ever works on them, including myself. Ha ha. I’m so bad with bike maintenance. But now that I have bikes with disc brakes & gears like the OM-Duro, Fast Ripper, Beastmode & Fat Ripper, I sometimes take them over to Big Wheel Bicycles in Artesia to get dialed in.

What’s the coolest thing that has happened to you from riding bikes?

The coolest thing is that after nearly 40 years of riding BMX bikes, riding is still my life. I am grateful every day that I have been able to turn my passion into my profession. And also travelling is so cool and FUN. I’ve been all around the world on my bike.

LEGENDS

Our Legends Team is made up of some of the biggest names ever in BMX. When it was a fledgling sport in the late 70’s and early 80’s, these guys were introducing BMX to the world. They’re all members of the BMX Hall of Fame and are a permanent part of BMX history!

Which decades did you compete in?

I competed in the 70’s and 80’s. I started racing January 1974 and retired in early 1984.

Which BMX era was the best for you? And why?

I had my best results in the mid to late 70’s. I won some races in the early 80’s but I’d say the 70’s is when I did my best. I loved that era because BMX was such a brand-new sport, and we were racing for the love of the sport as opposed to making it our living like we did in the 80’s. The late 70’s did have the starting of the big paydays, and I won some of those.

Can you quickly rattle off the national and world titles that you’ve won? Or do you have to Google yourself?

I can answer most. 1979 Pro World Champion, 1980 International BMX Federation – Tokyo, Japan Champion, 1980 AVRO Dutch Champion, 1975 Arizona State Champion, 1976 NBA National #2, NBA 1979 #4 Pro, NBL 1980 #6 Pro, 1976 Western States Champion, 1976 NBA Regional #3. I have other National and Pro wins, but those would be my official titles.

Are there some people that remember more about your BMX past than you do?

There may be some that remember more about what parts I had on my bike, or how it was set up, but I believe I remember most about my racing career.

What was more important to you, a big payday or scoring the cover of a magazine?

A lot of my wins came before we had actual big paydays, but I would say a big win would be more important to me than a magazine cover. Although when you won, you got good magazine coverage.

What does it mean to you to have a signature bike with SE nearly 40 years after you were first sponsored by SE Racing?

I get asked this all the time, as my initials have been on the PK Ripper since early 1979. It is and has always been a huge honor to have my initials on the bike, as it has been a BMX favorite for so many people. I hear from old-time BMXers that they always wanted a PK Ripper, and I don’t ever take that for granted. It is especially cool now that the old school BMX scene is so strong and so many riders ride either a 26” PK Ripper or a 29” Big Ripper. I am truly grateful to have my initials on the PK Ripper, and always will be.

Are big wheels the fountain of youth for an old school BMXer like yourself?

I believe the big wheel bikes have been the fountain of youth since Scot Breithaupt and the other old-school BMX pioneers started racing cruisers back in 1979. I used to see 26” wheel cruiser classes for riders up to 50+. I thought those guys were so cool back then for wanting to get on a bike and race with their kids. Then the class got really competitive and I raced Pro Cruiser back in the early 80’s.

Now there are a lot of old school BMXers like me wanting to get back on a BMX bike and just ride. Without the big-wheeled bikes, we would not have the street ride scene that we have and enjoy now. I was lucky enough to be around at the beginning of BMX, and again now at the forefront of the old-school BMX street scene. I love the rides with the crew and hope to do them for many more years to come. The big-wheel BMX bikes have made that possible for me and so many other riders.
