Eight years ago, Edgerton stunt motorcyclist Ryan Suchanek started practicing wheelies, burnouts and other tricks in local parking lots.
At the time, Suchanek told people he planned to take his chosen hobby, sport bike freestyle riding, all the way to the World Series of extreme sports: the X Games.
That was before he lost part of his leg in a collision with a car and had to learn to ride a 400-pound street bike using a prosthetic leg.
This week, Suchanek, 29, is making good on old plans. He’s headed to Los Angeles, Calif., to take part in the 2010 Summer X Games.
Thursday at the X Games, while world famous skateboarders and BMX bicyclists compete in venues throughout downtown L.A., Suchanek will perform in a sport bike freestyle exhibition.
Vice President Joe Biden visited the Kopp's Frozen Custard store in Glendale with Russ Feingold. When the Vice President asked the store manager how much he owed for the custard, the manager told the VP "Don't worry, it's on the house...lower our taxes and we'll call it even."
620 WTMJ is reporting that Biden then said something like "You don't have to be a smartass." under his breath.
