Max Miille lives in Hillsboro, Oregon, and shares a workshop with his father, the owner of Sandragon Motorsports - builders of custom ATVs and ATV parts. Max works as a welder/fabricator and fell in love with customizing bikes. After building a Yamaha XS650, he has become obsessed with dirt-biking.
