Info: Nick Franklin hails out of New Zealand and grew up on a farm just outside of Tokoroa on the northern island. After annoying his parents to get him a motorbike to rip around their Tokoroa farm as a 10-year-old, Nick has been seldom off the two-wheeled beasts, unless he's flying through the air with barely a fingertip between him and the bike.
After years riding motocross bikes in junior competitions and one thing led to another and eventually built his own ramp at his parents' farm. From there, he went on to win New Zealand's X Air competition in 2002 and left his job at Kinleith mill to start traveling the world and do the Red Bull X-Fighters in Valencia and Madrid back in 2003. Nick joined FMX4Ever in 2004 and has been a solid teammate and a hard working boy for the team ever since. In the European winter, Nick has been busy doing the Crusty Tour down in Australia and New Zealand.
