14-Year Old Streetbiker
Now
this story is more than just a story about a really talented kid who learned to ride a streetbike in, well, ways that seem to defy physics. In addition, this fellow actually appreciates this country and wants to thank those who made it possible for him to actually have the freedom to learn such things. And no, it's not the government.
Instead, Aaron Colton wants to thank the troops. He wants to perform for wounded soldiers in Washington and in Iraq, if possible. He wants to share his talents and thank the soldiers who risk their lives to ensure that we can be free, in spite of attempts by Democrats and others who want us to surrender and become muslim.
How can he do that? He doesn't know, and neither do I. But I do know that if we spread the word, perhaps someone who DOES know will read about it and will be able to help Aaron realize his dream -- of thanking soldiers. That's what Aaron dreams about -- what do you wish for in your life?

Wow... I watched that video clip. That kid is awesome.
As for getting overseas, all I can think of is the USO, and it appears that they've already tried that.
I sure hope he can get there... that'd be some serious MOTO...

I'm pretty sure he's breaking some laws of physics there.

I just wanted to thank you for picking up on my desire to give the troops a little lift from home. They have to feel pretty depressed thinking that none of us have enough guts to stick it out when we are living in luxury and they are the ones that are making all of the sacrifices and living the misery.
I really do appreciate the military support blogs that have helped publicize what I am trying to do. We are making progress and we have hired a publicist. Calling the USO can help, especially if you have a connection with the military. I know from the troops that I have performed for that they love the show. And I am sure the support that I can show by going to Iraq and Afghanistan will mean all that much more for them and really bring the message of the support they have from many many people at home. It also reminds them of home and what they are fighting for, because many write and say that they can not wait until they can get back to America and hop on their motorcycles again and ride and stunt and be free.
I wish the soldiers could just feel how much love and pride my family alone has in its hearts for them. When I think of how many guys might feel that we have let them down and turned away from what they are giving their lives for and yet go out every day and do their jobs and face death again and again! Shame is not a strong enough word.
Thank you everybody and please find a way to show your patriotism and support. I have found that just my one persons support can affect many soldiers.
