00:00We're going to do a spin interview, so hey, I know you from years back but tell the people
00:16who you are and where you're from.
00:17My name is Dylan Woodcock from England and yeah, that's it really, we're just here racing
00:22Supercross.
00:23And this is your first year in the States racing professionally, right?
00:26Yeah, it's my first professional race.
00:28I've raced back home in MX2 and stuff, but it's not like a professional type league,
00:34it's just like the country's biggest race and no, it's been a wicked experience racing
00:39with people that I was watching last year and looking up to and now I'm on the start
00:43line and jumping.
00:44No, it's really good.
00:45Yeah, what's it like from watching it on TV and then now you're actually here and...
00:50Yeah, it's a...
00:51When you watch it on TV you think, oh, the whoops, the sections, they look so small and
00:55then you get here and all the track walking, the whoops are like up to your knees, you're
00:59like, oh.
01:00But no, it's been a good experience, I really enjoyed it and I'm pretty sure I'll be back
01:03next year.
01:04Yeah, so are you doing just 250 West Coast?
01:06250 West Coast, my last race will be next weekend in San Diego, maybe come back for
01:10two or one or two more and yeah, that's it really, I'll just go home, do some work, ride
01:19some bikes and come back next year and hopefully do better.
01:22Yeah, yeah, so how has it been for you?
01:25Have you had some success?
01:26Are you happy with it?
01:27Yeah, I've made every single night show, I should have made a few main events but it's
01:30just, it's so hard from going, from not doing nothing to doing something and it's like a
01:36whole different process, if you know what I mean.
01:39I think the hardest thing was to not get hurt leading up to it and going too crazy, if you
01:44know what I mean.
01:45But no, it's been really good.
01:47And I saw you around the local California tracks, have you been out here quite a bit
01:50riding Milestone?
01:51I would come two months before and I'd just come here just to warm up and stuff but the
01:58first time I rode a Supercross track was on the Super Mini when I raced Monster Carp and
02:02that was it really but it was a big experience to get on it and not get too carried away
02:07by doing all the big stuff straight away but it's been good so far.
02:10Yeah, and you were a Team Green kid, right?
02:12I was a Team Green kid, yeah, Jeff Perrett and Ross Burridge, they helped me out loads,
02:16I was I think my first year on a small wheel, 85, to my first year pro, I was with Team
02:23Green in there.
02:24I rode for Riva Escobarna and now me, myself and I, Stuntflying and CMH and Lee Lifting
02:30and that's it, just a couple of money sponsors and off we go.
02:34Yeah, so once this is over, is that reset for you for the year?
02:38Will you race some European stuff?
02:40I don't know, I might do some stunts, my dad's a stunt coordinator so I might do some stunts.
02:47He just rung me this morning to tell me he's got a cheap bike, he's traded my old bike
02:50in so I have a bike.
02:53I might come back here and do some races but no, I'm just going to do some European races,
02:57have some fun, do work and earn a bit of money.
03:00And you want to come back here next year and do it?
03:02100% yeah, I want to definitely come back here but if I don't get on a team or nothing,
03:06I'm just going to do my own thing and get Mickey to help me, it's been great.
03:10So do you like the California dream weather or what?
03:13Yeah, it's not been so dreamy this year but it's been good, I've been here a few years
03:18before but no, it's good, now I'm a bit grown up but it's good.
03:22Sweet man, well good talking to you and we'll see you out there.
