scott erwood -lrb- born october 20 , 1987 in surrey , british columbia -rrb- is a canadian professional bmx cyclist .
having started bmx racing since the age of twelve , erwood has claimed two canadian national tournament titles each in both junior and elite categories , and has mounted a top-eight finish at the 2007 uci world championships in his home turf victoria , british columbia .
while riding for numerous seasons on the crupi world factory team , erwood also represented his nation canada at the 2008 summer olympics , following a race-off with his formidable rival jim brown from an olympic selection camp in chula vista , california that nearly missed his lifetime opportunity to earn the ticket .
erwood qualified for the canadian squad , as the nation 's lone rider , in men 's bmx cycling at the 2008 summer olympics in beijing by receiving an invitational berth from the international cycling union -lrb- uci -rrb- based on his best performance at the uci world championships in victoria , british columbia , canada , and by defeating his rival jim brown on a sudden-death race-off from an olympic selection camp in chula vista , california .
after he grabbed a twenty-sixth seed on the morning prelims with a time of 37.050 , erwood scored a total of 19 placing points to mount an eighth spot in his quarterfinal heat , thus eliminating him from the tournament .
