Seems like a normal kid with an actual social life outside of motocross. I'd like to see him win!

Lost in translation I suppose, he's probably talking about his riding style being a bit all over the place at times, not that he's nervous/scared.

i know, its refreshing... When was the last time you heard some groomed wonder kid say "we like to party", they'd get slaughtered for such an 'unprofessional' comment! ha.

Seriously!

Tommy Searle looks like he parties and spends alot of his time in the pool, and riding bmx!

Jake Weimer and RV hit BMX dirt jumps, too.

Andrew Short about Ken Roczen:
He’s still learning the ropes and I think he’s going to win some races but there will be some races that he throws away because of his age and stuff.
Short comes across really well in that interview.

Probably due to the modest way he goes about his business I never really had much of an opinion of the guy before his MXdN selection, didn't pay him much attention to him to be honest. But thanks to all the subsequent media exposure I've learnt what a decent guy he is and I've definitely become a fan. Short & Albertson have to be two of the most down to earth, professional racers in the US.

Yep, I would add Dungey and Canard to that list.

from the Alessi Racing web site thing...

My team mates are Andrew Short and Ken Rocksin we all ride together a lot, and get along really good! Ken comes to my house a lot and trains with me ...he’s a hard worker and a nice kid.

looks like Mikey has good things to say about this "Rocksin" character...

Hope Mikey has a good "for oh Juan Kay"...phonetically speaking!

I think Roczen was AWESOME at the MXDN...I think SX maybe a bit different for him, but he has raced them in Europe and looked good. I think he will do great with some time to adjust! Robbie said when in Germany a few yrs ago....Roczen was just a kid and was flying and Robbie came back and said watch for that kid in the future!!! He made a huge statement in CO in Sept! I can't wait to see what he does now!
