After I knocked my teeth out, I went to the bathroom to rinse out my mouth and wash my face. As I was doing so, the man behind S&M Bikes walked in and started taking a piss in the urinal. I remember talking with him but I don’t remember what was said. I was still seeing stars and had a bad case of tunnel vision. It wasn’t until we were exiting the bathroom did I realize that I was talking with the infamous Chris Moeller.  This is the guy who never really gave a fuck about what the tight asses in BMX thought. He always did things his own way, pulling practical jokes, parody ads, getting angry letters and occasional cease and desist orders… all while running one of the most successful core companies in BMX. From what I’ve read and seen in the magazines, the guy’s a bit of a bad ass.

I remember trying to shake the man’s hand but am unsure if it was a successful attempt… which in retrospect may not be a bad thing, especially considering that moments prior, I had my bloody teeth in my hand and he had his dick in his.

I was stoked to have met him but hopefully next time it’ll be under different circumstances.
