Kenny May Biography

Kenny May is one of the most popular and richest Sport Cyclist who was born on April 5, 1970 in Sacramento, Sacramento, United States. Kenneth Henry May (born April 5, 1970 from Sacramento, California, U.S.) is a former American professional “Old/Mid School” Bicycle Motocross (BMX) racer whose prime competitive years were from 1985 to 2000.

Home sanctioning body district(s): American Bicycle Association (ABA) CA-11 (1985)

Height & weight at height of his career (1988–1998): Ht:6’1″ Wt:197 lbs.

On November 29, 1989 during the ABA Grandnationals in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma in a heavily contested race for the title of No.1 Amateur Cruiser that year, Kenny May had to be restrained by security guards to keep him from assaulting James Prichard (of whom he had several previous disputes with). In this case he thought made an overly aggressive pass during his 17–21 Cruiser main in the second turn while Kenny was leading. Kenny went down in the turn, costing him any chance of the 1989 amateur Cruiser title. As the guards and Yvonne Shoup restrained “a snorting mad” May, Prichard’s family retreated to other environs after Prichard’s last race.

Kenny May was possibly the most arressive racer towards other competetores BMX had since the days of “Crazy” Ronnie Anderson in the mid-1980s. In Ronnie Anderson fashion, he liked to “trash talk” the competition to get a psychological advantage. Sometimes this “trash talk” would provoke a physical altercation with another racer as it did with Joe Pinkney at the 1988 NBL Tanglewood Spring Nationals in Clemmons, North Carolina. It resulted in Pinkney having a dislocated shoulder.

May had a “go for broke” racing style that often would result in him wrecking on the track and resulting in his injury. Indeed, he broke his hand in his very first race in 1979 He acknowledged his predilections for on track mishaps in an interview:

Started racing: 1979 at approximately 10 years old at the Auburn DeWitt track. After racing for approximately two years he quit in 1983 after burnout. He returned to racing in 1985.

His best known nickname is “May Day”, a play on words involving his last name and the international call of distress Mayday which was in turn prompted by his hard charging “go-for-it” racing determined to come in first no matter what the cost. It often lead him to be carried off the race track in a stretcher. His being knocked out after a severe wreck (despite having a helmet on) during the 1986 American Bicycle Association (ABA) Grand Nationals being a case in point. He often managed to recover quickly enough to be in the next moto (heat) of racing to take the win and transfer to the main. Incidents like this also earned him the alternate nickname of “Mayhem”, another play on his name and his predilection for wrecking on the race track and his aggressiveness toward other racers while racing and not.
