You really know how to catch the attention of a crowd ! It was really cool how you told us to never give up. I think that is one of the best lessons we can learn in life. You have awesome talent in trick riding ! I was AMAZED !!!!!!!!!!  Anyway thanks

I seen Rich perform his stunt show at my school. It was very fun watching him jumping over mr.Dempsy the 7th grade social studies teacher, and the 5th grade teacher mrs Jacub. It was awesome ! The stunts he did were so cool. He talked to us about drugs and how he got started  stunt riding. Everyone
loved it .

Hey Rich,

you came to my school in Wisconsin today ... and just to let you know ...what I think your doing is a really great thing , AND YOU ARE COMPLETELY AWESOME ON YOUR BIKE. your story was so awesome how you  started out delivering newspapers in the freezing cold to earn the money for your 1st trick bike. It is amazing how some things can be accomplished if you just believe --- and me being a junior in high school...not knowing what im going to do in life yet---(but I should probably think about it because I graduate next year) but you just gave me hope-that anything that I set my
mind to-I can be---  so I went home and told my parents about you and what you talked about today--and now we are looking at colleges that I can attend. And I am really concentrating in school now, just so I can be what I want to be in life !
I just wanted to let you know that I love your insperations for things , and letting us kids know  that even in a small town that anything is possible if you set your mind to it, and set a goal for your self and just try your best to achieve it.  I make small goals for my self, like getting at least a B on the next geometry quiz, and it makes me so happy when I get an A ! and if I can do that , then I can set long term goals.   So thank you again for coming to our school (and signing my brothers hat!) and justy giving us a head start to our future.  You are a true insperation and definately some one that I can look up to!  Thnank you so much for that .
