Airing Sunday, November 15, at 8:00pm Eastern Time (5:00pm Pacific Time), and re-airing several more times during the next month, BMX Pro Ryan Nyquist stars in FUEL TV’s signature 30-minute series “Firsthand.”

For the past ten years, Ryan Nyquist has been a household name in BMX, and one of the most accomplished pro BMX riders in the world. Follow along with Ryan on his “Firsthand” as he takes us through his summer of 2009, starting off in his hometown of San Jose, California with a jumping competition titled Warriors of Wood that he organized and competed in, then traveling to Koln, Germany for the BMX Worlds competition, where he does well despite the rainy weather conditions.

Then watch as he spends some quality time at home with his family and takes us through his daily responsibilities as a new father and family man. After the home visit, it’s off to the Dew Tour in Portland, Oregon for another great weekend of BMX.

Ryan reflects on his new lifestyle as a family man and the struggles of balancing a hectic traveling schedule with wanting to be home, spending time with his family.
