Christian Arehart, 22, is a freestyle mountain biker and now a world record holder. The 2021 South High grad has been doing tricks on bikes for as long as he’s been riding them, but his most recent accomplishment shocked even him.

Arehart will be performing Wednesday, Nov. 27 as part of the Nitro Circus at MVP Arena in Albany.
