More quotes by Matt Skiba
I do what I love for a living, and I also get to build BMX bikes in my spare time.
Matt Skiba
I was thinking about hitting races and stuff, but it's just, I think it's more of the era of when I was a kid and it just brings back memories. I gotta just chill and live in the past.
Matt Skiba
I told myself I would never stop skating. I would never stop riding bikes or riding motorcycles. I raced dirt when I was a kid motocross. So it definitely keeps me in tune with my youth. I'm almost 40 years old and I feel like I'm 17 years old, and I feel like that's really healthy.
Matt Skiba
Skating is what got me into punk rock.
Matt Skiba
The extent of my personal BMX adventures were all [on] dirt tracks. But just the aesthetic of it that early-to-mid-'80s BMX is something that's just part of me.
Matt Skiba
I usually just wear black so my shoes and my socks are my rays of sunshine.
