LETS GO!! Lil Homie shreddding and smart af for his age!
-
Love how all the big homies show love to him and guiding him down the right way
-
The man said it. He’s an exceptional young man. Hope he remains this way his whole life. He’ll go far
-
This kid is a mascot in a place that needs a mascot exactly the way he is. Also, reading through here and seeing all the love, and the fact that so many people recognize that this is so much more than just a kid on a dirt bike... He's something special, almost like a gift that his mom has given to the city, and she recognizes it. Keep him safe.
-
I’m glad his mom understands his passion and let’s him learn from his decisions
-
Protect this kid. He’s a real inspiration
-
Mad respect to the mom for giving her son a chance and letting him do what he loves to do!

-
I'm glad to see him wearing a helmet.

This city needs a track. It seems like riding is helping a lot of people manage and deal with their daily struggles. This kid deserves to make it out the hood.
-
Him watching a YouTube vid on how to tie his necktie almost broke me man 😞. I pray this kid is protected every time he goes out riding and grow into an amazing adult.
-
Bro this reminds me of myself growing up. I've been riding since I was 4 and haven't considered stopping anytime soon. It truly is a lifestyle
-
When i saw him learn how to tie a tie on YouTube I immediately connected. He’s the man of the house. Good luck EJ
-
praying for nothing but success and love for this kid
-
What an amazing young man! He's very lucky to have such a cool mother that supports him and loves him so much!
-
His mom is so beautiful, and it is obvious she is an amazing Mom. This kid is wise beyone his years, and you can feel the love his little sister has for him. That starts from Moms love
-
His mom is doing an exceptional job raising this young man. Little man has exceptional manners and is very respectful.
-
I pray he lives a long healthy life kid seems so positive and well mannered definitely was taught right growing up!! Respect young one
-
Wow, loved this story what a positive kid and an inspiration! I now 66 years of age and a black male that raced Moto X in my youth on the Southern California circuit. I had the same fascination with bikes in my youth. Was crowned the "Wheelie King in my home town" after wining a competition on a local track. Also spent many hours churning that dirt in Carson and Gardena CA before all those sub divisions were built. My helmet is off to you young Brother, stay safe on those streets! Much Love!
