Jamie Bestwick is a good guy.
June 18, 2008 – King of Vert Jamie Bestwick, who is a five time X Games Gold Medalist, three time Dew Tour Champion and Athlete of the Year (Nora Cup), has joined forces with his sponsors, Etnies, Levi’s, Monster Energy, Boost Mobile, Bell Helmets and The Athlete Recovery Fund to help raise awareness as well as monetary donations for the Stephen Murray Family Fund. The fund was established on behalf of injured BMX athlete Stephen Murray, who suffered a severe spinal cord injury while competing in 2007’s Panasonic Open. The Athlete Recovery Fund was created to assist injured action sports athletes, such as Murray, with charitable medical and educational assistance.
Bestwick, along with System Bicycle Supply and his sponsors, will be auctioning seven one-of–a-kind bikes each signed by Bestwick. Each BMX bike will be ridden by Bestwick at various competitions throughout the summer beginning with the Panasonic Open June 19-22 in Baltimore, Maryland. The other competitions include all five stops of the AST Dew Tour, X Games 14 and the LG World Championships.
After each competition one bike will become available for auction at this EBAY link. Please stay tuned to www.ast.com for more details and updates.
Now keep an eye out and buy all of Jamie's bikes. They are for a good cause and he's sweet!

to think that you need some kind of "prize" is weak.
if you want to help, just help-
whether you give your best wishes, or give a person your pocket change, or give a mill. to a chariy, do you feel you need something in return???
i understand that there are people that would give more for something in return, but is that giving?
