Let's make this birthday one to remember.

53 years old (Born on October 06, 1971)

Happy Birthday, Dale! From dominating the tracks at Slough in '85 as a fearless 13 Expert to clinching the NBMXA British Championships title in '88, you've always pedaled ahead of the pack. Your legendary rides have inspired countless BMX enthusiasts and left competitors eating your dust.

As Britain's Cyclist of the Year (1996) and a proud inductee into the British Cycling Hall of Fame (2009), your legacy is secure—though we're pretty sure you're still secretly practicing wheelies when no one's looking. Keep riding strong, Dale; may this birthday bring you fewer flat tires and more podium finishes!
