Bas Keep: I feel okay but I have to have some checkups to make sure my insides are all cool! 
Do you ever think of what can/could happen when you do a certain trick (face the consequences)? Bas Keep: I’m usually just scared of breaking bones but now I know that damaging your insides hurts a lot more and is serious shit.
England has a free medical system, how do you take care of these international hospital bills?
Bas Keep: I’m really lucky because I have worldwide insurance through Red Bull
2007 is one busy year again. Do you pick your own events to go to or do your sponsors ask you to go places?
Bas Keep: Miron sent me a text asking if I wanted to go to Singapore so its usually that kind of deal. I like going to fun and different stuff and I’ll usually go to events that my sponsors are involved with. I’ve helped Kye Forte and Red Bull out with an amazing event called "Empire Of Dirt' its a dirt event with street obstacles and a Dirt halfpipe! The crew at Red Bull are always trying to push it and make there events fun for the riders so I know it’s gonna be rad! 
When is the next Roundabout tour going to take place? Bas Keep: I’ve spoken to the riders and we decided we would do a trip next year sometime.
How's that going (Roundabout)?
Bas Keep: It’s cool we sell a few t-shirts and we all really enjoy the trips so it’s all good.
Hastings is your home. Have you ever considered moving somewhere else? Bas Keep: Yo it’s warm in Hastings! I thought about it but I like home, I have everything I need here. U.S.A is fun and I like going there but it’s way too wacky for me!
Do you think it's amazing living the BMX life just riding your bike, traveling all over the place?
