Listen to a story about a 9 year old bicycle motocross racer.

Complete the resume with the information you get from the story.

Tell you about a 9 year old boy.

He is a bicycle motocross racer.

And his name is Andrew Sue, he rides under Number One on the truck.

And his lives in Lansing, Michigan.

He is also Number One in other ways.

He weighs about 34 kilograms.

The boy is a two time BMX, that's Bicycle Motocross National Champion.

And he is also a two time world champion.

He is right Number One for his age in the National Bicycle League and Number One in the American Bicycle Association's Michigan Two District.

And he has been a bicycle motocross racer since he was 5 years old.

Andrew has collected more than 125 trophies for his feats on the truck.

His awesome display of hardware has not set around collecting dust, however.

He donated many of the trophies, the hardware to the Michigan Special Olympics.

I don't know if you're familiar with that.

Now Special Olympics are for handicapped youngsters.

He said that he saw the Special Olympics on television and he decided that he had so many trophies that he ought to give them some.

And he talked it over with his parents and they, too, thought it was a good idea.

His father, Tom Sue, says that they were sort of running out of rooms in the house.

After seeing the crippled children on television, they knew they had found a worthwhile purpose for the trophies.

And Andrew's unselfish gesture has brought praise from Michigan State Representative and the Speaker of the House, Bobby Crimm.

He wrote a letter and said, "Your mom and dad must be very proud of you, Andy. You're truly an extraordinary young man."

And Andrew's parents are obviously quite proud of what their son has done, both on the truck as a bicycle motocross Number One winner,

and also by giving the trophies to the handicaps, participates in the Special Olympics.

He knows that those trophies will bring other people great joy, too.
