I've always appreciated KC Badger's presence in BMX simply because he does what he wants. He doesn't try to keep up with the latest trends, tricks or styles. He just does what he does (really really well) and seems to be happy enough with that. But of course, there's more to KC than just a heaping handful of awesome BMX style and skills. KC is a legitimate artist with a Bachelor of Arts degree from ASU in Tempe, Arizona. He works in a variety of mediums, including painting, drawing and sculpting; and his subjects run the gamut of experiences, from pop culture icons to homeless people to unicorns. But above everything else, KC is a sweet dude, the kind of guy that just oozes goodness without even trying. Fresh off yet another Northwest summer, we caught up with KC to check out what's new in his life. What follows is a quick ten-minute glimpse into one of the most stylish and artistic BMXers around right now. Enjoy.
