Robbie Brockel.

Cowtown.

Robbie is from Phoenix, Arizona. He got the hookup with Deluxe through Cowtown, the local shop. Real turned him pro during his run at a Phoenix Am contest. They kept it a secret and totally surprised him. He also rode for late era Circa. His brother Richie played fullback for the Carolina Panthers for four seasons.

Real turns 35 years old this fall so I figured that was a good thing to tie in with the countdown to the 4,000th post.
