Problem with living in the north east of Scotland when you are an up and coming rider seaking sponsorship is that not many 'talent scouts' stop in by to check out whats on offer, until 4Down Distribution decided to take a new look at the way sponsorships are given out. 4Down are teaming up with a limited number of UK dealers to find the talent in our local scene and reward those who have been pushing themselves unoticed for years. Making the choice of who should be hooked up was not an easy one, especially after so many demonstrated the ability to put together a rad video section in the middle of winter with 'Coming Lang Syne', but for anyone who has been involved in riding in the north east for any amount of time should know that the obvious choice would be Simon Gibb. He has been slogging it out for 8 years now, driving up and down the country and showing an amazing amount of commitment to BMX.
Si chose to ride Fit and A.Bike products through 4Down and was recently hooked up with a new rig but will continue to ride for his long time sponsor BSD, as the tat on his arm shows BSD is for life.
