The first iphone app I wrote, BMX Grub, I dedicated an area to the Stephen Murray Family Fund. For those of you who are unaware about Stephen…

“Heading into the 2007 Dew Action Sports Tour, former BMX dirt jumping star Stephen Murray’s back was against the wall. After setting the action sports world ablaze in 2001 with his gold medal-winning performance at the X-Games, his career lost momentum. As the bills piled up, Murray sought to reverse his fortunes with a huge performance in June 2007, only to suffer a catastrophic accident that left him a quadriplegic.”

This was the first time I met Stephen, and I can’t tell you how exciting it was. This man is incredible. Definitely a highlight of my trip 🙂 Stay Strong Stephen -DG
