What a roller coaster ride it has been for Matt Wilhelm the past few weeks. Matt broke his finger leading up to the Worlds, and was pretty much thinking he would have to pull out. On his 5th attempt of riding, he felt good enough to make it happen!
And I bet he is happy he did, Matt turned in a flawless run that earned him third place at the iBMXff World Championships. An awesome story, thanks Matt for pulling through and showing what can happen with the right mindset! Massive respect!
