16 year old Harry Gorman is the latest rider to join the Alans BMX family
Home Town
I’m from a small town in Cardiff called Dinas Powys Been riding a bike since the age of two.
Local Spots
Local park is Rampworld and it's luckily my favourite too. Because I dislocated my shoulder not long ago I’ve had to miss out on competing but I’ve been doing shows for Ben Savage around UK and Europe soon, which is honestly my happy place, the crowds and hype I get doing the shows is a feeling like no other!
Bike Set Up
Never been fussy with my bike but I’ve always liked having it never too light, I find having a heavier bike gives me more feedback and style while riding.
Inspiration
Closest friends on my bike has always been Dan Butler, usually known as Disabled Dan he’s a very inspiring guy and rips on a bike, vibes are always the best when I’m with him, also over the past few years I’ve spent lots of time with Scott Hamlin, also an inspiration to me, his style of riding will make make anyone like watching BMX, the career he’s had is insane, awesome dude!
Harry Gorman
I saw Harry ride at RAF Shawbury earlier this and couldn’t believe he was only 16, the exact same age I was when i started racing 45 BMX years ago. He just came back from a shoulder injury and ripping harder than ever. He has a bright future for sure and we are over the moon to be working with him.
Alan Woods/Alans BMX
Harry is busy with shows all summer and so look out for him out there and he will appear in the forthcoming Alans BMX 45 Year film, produced by Peter Adam.
