The Riders' Poll is voted on by over 100 pro riders. The big show took place at The Fillmore Auditorium in downtown Denver. Nominated for RIDER OF THE YEAR and VIDEOPART OF THE YEAR I felt honored for the recognition with the chance of taking home an Award. Unfortunately I didn't since Videopart went hand in hand with the Rider of the Year award for men and women. So John Jackson took the two awards home for his videopart in the Forum Forever movie. Annie Boulanger took home female Rider of the Year and Videopart of the Year for her part in Absinthe's Neverland. Altogether I couldn't be happier to also have witnessed the speech of Tom Burt who received the Legend Award. Rookie Of The Year honors went to Iceland’s Halldór Helgason.
