A Quirk Of Fate
With the abrupt and terrible passing of star Pat Casey this week, the BMX community is grieving the loss of one of its finest talents.

While Exercising
On Tuesday, June 6, the BMX champion was practicing motocross at the Axell Hodges-owned Playground Motocross Park east of Ramona, California.

A Deadly Jump
Pat Casey accidentally fell off his bike during a practice session after performing a dirt jump.

There Was Nothing Else Paramedics Could Do
Despite paramedics arriving right away and attempting for an hour to resuscitate the little rider, they were unsuccessful.

There Was His Family
The motorcycle hit on Casey was determined to be the cause of death by the San Diego County Department of the Medical Examiner. The fact that the driver’s family was also there at the racing track made the disaster all the more terrible.

Married And Has Two Kids
According to Fox News, their two children, Reid, 8, and Taytum, 7, saw the accident and their father’s subsequent death, as did his wife Chase Casey.

A Tribute To A Legend
Since then, Chase Casey has honored her late husband and his BMX career on her Instagram profile.

A Long Legacy
In the BMX community, Pat Casey leaves behind an irreplaceable legacy. For instance, in 2011 he performed the first decade backflip ever by a rider.

Among The Best
In addition, he has the distinction of doing the Double Decade Backflip and winning several BMX medals, including the gold at the X Games 2021 in dirt.

His kids Have Carried On His Legacy.
Only another BMX star, Ryan Williams, beat him to the silver medal in the first MegaPark competition a year later. He instructed his children to emulate him in the interim.

Old age is only a number.
Pat Casey, who is only 29 years old, has accomplished a lot both personally and professionally.
early in a career
Pat Casey, who was just 16 years old, became a professional BMX rider at that age owing to training on the little ramp his father built for him.

At the age of 18, two years later, he had already purchased the home of his dreams, which he frequently displays in his films.

Then love arrived
Pat Casey married Chase Casey, the mother of his two children, two more years later, in 2013, and they had two children together.
When questioned why he married so young, Casey responded that it would be silly not marry if he had won the lottery.

Pat Casey made world-famous leaps, won contests all around the world, appeared on magazine covers, but most importantly, as his wife frequently reaffirmed on social media, he was a terrific parent, husband, and athlete. Peace be with you.
