Swedish rider Jesper Börjesson has been riding since he was 3 years old. When he has some free time, he slows down a bit with a round or two of golf. Check out our Q&A with Jesper: How did you get started in riding? My parents got me my first bike when I was 3 years old, and from then on I never stopped riding. What do you do when you aren't riding? What are your hobbies? I hang out with friends and play golf. What do you do in the off-season? I train and focus on the upcoming season. Do you have any pre-race rituals? No. I just focus on what I'm going to do and give it 100%. Where's your favorite place to ride? Your favorite track? My home track in Sweden. What was your best moment as a pro rider? My victory in the Junior Superenduro World Championship in France and 3 podiums in the 125cc World Enduro Championship 2014. What are your riding goals? I want to get as good as I possibly can be and see how far I can go, hopefully becoming a world champion. What is your advice for those just starting out? Take it slowly, but don't be afraid to try new stuff. What's the funniest or weirdest reason you have had DNF? I actually never had a fun or weird DNF, because I'm not used to DNF! ;) But at WEC in France in 2012, I hurt my shoulder at the supertest. So I had travelled 4000km in a car for 2 minutes of riding. Why did you choose Rabaconda 3-Minute Mousse Changer? Because I love it.
