I am a multi-sport athlete (BMX and Rowing), both have taught me many things. I hope I can spread a light for athletes with my great background in proper weight training and my BMX background.

1982 – 1989 Started my BMX trek at 11 years old. Raced for teams; BEST, Kar City Big Wheels, Bike n Hike, Co-Factory Redline and GT. Held several #1 and #2 district numbers and top 30 overall national ranks. In late 1988 I turned pro, I raced a few pro races and joined US Marine Corps. In 1996 -2007 I returned to BMX. I rode for teams such as Outlaw Racing, Goodtimes Standard Byke, Strange Motion, DK support (RM59), Free Agent support. In 2003-2004 season I turned Vet Pro. While in Vet Pro I made top 10 in NBL, qualified and raced the 2007 Worlds in Canada. In 2008 I retired from competition and raced every so often. In 2012 I returned to BMX as an Expert with Factory Strange Motion/Kicker. In 2013 I obtained the Redline Cup #1 plate while riding for CCH bikes. In January of 2014 I turned Vet Pro again and rode for Factory (TFS) 24 Se7en. Currently I have the support of Strange Motion, Answer Bmx and FLY Racing.

Donny Robinson is currently the eldest AA-pro in our sport - having turned Pro in 1999. His moniker is “dR” (his initials), often followed by 10 (his UCi career number. According to Wikipedia, the use of the lowercase “d” for his given name is perhaps related to his relatively diminutive physical size. Always small in stature, since a very young age, Donny was always the smallest child in his age group. But what he missed out on in size, he far made up for it in heart, drive and determination. On June 25, 2008, Robinson was chosen by Mike King, team director of the 2008 USA BMX Olympic Team, to represent the U.S.A.. His teammates at the 2008 Beijing debut were Jill Kintner, Mike Day, and Kyle Bennett. His Olympic dream was realized at least in part when he came in third at the Summer Olympics winning a Bronze Medal; avoiding a pileup that saw South Africa’s Sifiso Nhlapo take out nearly half the field. Since it was the sport’s debut and the Mens final was run after the women’s, he officially became the third American and the sixth person overall to win an Olympic Medal in BMX Racing. Throughout his career and often since Beijing, dR has gained a reputation of landing onhis head. A LOT. One of the toughest guys around, he admitted in late 2013 to suffering at least 25 concussions over the course of his career. In the same interview, he advocated for better concussion protocol at the lower levels of BMX racing. Donny’s great sense of rumor - mocking his own reputations as the “little, old guy with memory loss” has boosted dR’s popularity, and he always seems to be a fan favorite, drawing the most cheers from the crowd.
