ABA BMX gets MOTIVATED!

The title – Motivated – may indeed be an understatement. Stronger words for the top “extreme” athletes profiled in this series might include “obsessed,” “possessed,” “adrenaline-hooked,” “fixated” and “consumed.”

Whatever the mix of fascinating passions motivating them, Motivated is a must-see for anyone wishing to understand the innate human attraction to risk and boundary-pushing for fame and glory. A biography series analyzing the incredible lives of the world’s top extreme athletes, Motivated devotes each 60-minute episode to the story of a champion, from childhood to the present. Experiences, influences and compulsions are offered up as ingredients in the complicated soup of personality that leads each week’s subject to the elite in their sport. Each episode is jam-packed with character, drama, high energy action, and inspiration.

Season One of Motivated includes an episode on the life of legendary BMX hero, Bubba Harris. Bubba is the reigning ABA National Number One Pro for three years running, ABA World Champion for the past two years, and is gunning for an Olympic gold medal as part of Team USA in the very first BMX competition in the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.
In addition to spending time in California and Arizona with Bubba, his family, his coaches, and his role models, the series will show Bubba in action at the ABA Las Vegas Nationals in Las Vegas, NV. Viewers will have the opportunity to see a side of Bubba no one has ever seen before – the discipline, determination, and dedication that helped him overcome all the odds and obstacles to become one of the best BMX riders in the history of the sport.

Motivated will air nationally on Rush HD Canada and Rush HD US.
