Taj Mihelich - Life After Pro

The Story of what came next.

1 May 2017

Filmed & Edited by Chris Rye for Ride BMX

Back injuries suck, it's more common in BMX than everyone thinks. It happened to Taj on a pretty horrific scale and it didn't give him many options as far as continuing to ride as a pro. However he made choices and stayed within the world of two wheels. Taj is one of the most influential riders of all time, he's done so much and created so much. This is the story of Taj Mihelich.
