The Tragic Death Of BMX Biker Pat Casey

Publish date: 2024-05-07

The late BMX rider Pat Casey developed a love for biking early in his life. Per Vans, Pat was from Yorba Linda, California, and began to bike as a 12-year-old, following his dad making him a mini ramp. Pat became a skilled rider before starting a professional career at 16. He later completed a decade backflip and double-decade backflip during events, according to Dirt Bike Lover, and was the first biker to accomplish this. Over the years, his skills as a pro athlete landed him endorsement deals with brands like Vans and Monster Energy Drink, via ASA Entertainment.

Per The U.S. Sun, Pat's wife is Chase Casey. The couple has a son named Reid and a daughter named Taytum. After Pat's death, Chase posted a throwback photo on her Instagram story of herself and Pat posing in front of the Eiffel Tower, writing, "Mau loa baby," which translates to "Forever baby." 

One of Casey's friends, BMX rider Ryan Fudger, also confirmed Pat's death on Our BMX in June 2023. Pat's last Instagram post, which showed him biking, has received many new comments since his devastating passing. "Thanks for the good times such an awesome role model RIP," biker and videographer Connor Ericsson wrote. Tyler Fernengel added, "See you on the other side my brother. Thank you for the years of love." A fan commented to Pat, "Rest in paradise Pat," alongside a red heart emoji.
