Thrillbillies: Wet and Wild

Travis’s cousin, Special Greg, is profiled. Special has the reflexes of a cat, and although he can’t ride a dirt bike very well, he’s helped to create many of Travis’ contest winning Freestyle moto tricks. We also pay a visit to Travis’ back flipping academy. Many of today’s top riders have learned the basics in his foam pit and on his dirt piles. And finally, we take you to the “million dollar jump” at Castillo Ranch. It’s named that because that’s how much money Travis lost when he crashed jumping it, ending his supercross career. Shot in California and Maryland, Jeremy Rawle and Gregg Godfrey (as Refus and Sprocket, respectively) act as hosts to help tell their stories of success and failure.
