Behind the Brand | Turn THIS Into Your Living | BMX Pro Nigel Sylvester @BehindtheBrand | Uploaded March 2024 | Updated October 2024, 19 hours ago.
Nigel Sylvester is one of the best BMX athletes of our time. Nigel was just a toddler on his little red tricycle when he was drifting around cones set up as race course by his cousin on his driveway. It was history from there.
Today, he shares with us how he went from being an avid BMX rider, to pro athlete, to a fully fledged creator and entrepreneur making a living from his childhood passion.
