I was really concerned about this jump. However, I am amazed at your success and wish to pass along to you good will and congratulations. What a spectacular feat! I had to view the jump on You Tube. I fell asleep New Years Eve before the event.
At any rate, you’re an amazing young man. I wish you continued success and I am praying for you always!!
Blessings and Light,
Robert Michael Jacobson (Carney, Md)
I remember as a kid watching Evel Knievel and thinking too myself that he needed a bigger ramp to land on - I wonder if that may have been the case?
Dear Robbie
what a fine jump that was i hope you never fail, all that you did in that jump
do it every time, remember you never question what works. the ramp,
the bike, the people, the way you felt, the wind, the speed, everything.
dont ever change.if we are still here, in 20 years you will be fine.
P S value your Instinks.
