Mike Haupt was one of my roommates in one of the many BMX houses in the Huntington Beach area in the early 90's. He was a serious BMX racer and jumper, and local at Sheep Hills. I did this drawing of him doing one stylish X-up over one of Sheep Hills' many sets of doubles. When I was drawing this, I toyed with the idea of listing all the top riders from Sheep Hills in the dark back of the take-off jump. I decided against it, partly because so many great jumpers were locals at Sheep, that I figured a forget a couple of them. So I just wrote Sheep Hills on the jump instead.
