| Jared Farley Originally hailing from Kempsey, New South Wales, Australia, where he was taught how to ride by his father, a former bull rider, Jared Farley has not only arrived in a literal sense in the United States, but has “arrived” figuratively as well, making a resounding mark in the PBR during 2004. Farley experienced nothing short of a dream year in 2004 with four U.S. Smokeless Tobacco Company (USSTC) Challenger Tour event titles. Injuries sidelined the Australian cowboy for portions of 2005 season. “I haven't had any serious injuries, which was good, but I pulled my groin in the start of July. That put me out for a while, and I wasn't able to hit all of the Challenger events like I was able to last year.” States Farley of his proudest bull riding moment, “Winning the Cheyenne Challenger event in 2004 is the greatest accomplishment of my career. I mean everyone knows about Cheyenne. I would also say qualifying for the PBR Finals is right up there, too", says Farley.

| McKennon wimberly As a toddler, McKennon Wilmberly was riding the family dog or anything else he could climb on – trying to follow in his father’s footsteps. “My dad [Joe Wimberly] was a bull rider and went to the NFR five times. I’ve always wanted to be just like him,” he states. As a kid, McKennon entered in mutton bustin’ competitions and later calf riding and steer riding competitions. He continued to progress through the ranks of junior bulls and eventually big bulls and recalls entering competitions alongside his dad. “It was great. My dad was still riding and we would go to bull ridings together and enter together. He has always been the one to teach me and tell me what I needed to do with my riding.” He says his proudest accomplishment to date was winning $50,000 at Challenger Tour Finals in 2007 “That woke me up inside and got me on [the BFTS] tour.” You’ll often notice Wimberly taking a few practice boxing jabs before he climbs on his bull. “I box a lot when I’m not riding. It helps me to stay mentally prepared so I keep pushing myself. After all, when you’re bull riding – you’re just fighting a bull instead of person.”

| Cody Rostockyj Coming from China Springs, Texas, Cody Rostockyj is no stranger to rodeo. He grew up around rodeos and started rididng at the the age of 14 after watching his dad. He is the one who taught Rostockyj to ride. The first open rodeo he ever went to, he won and has been hooked ever since. Now at the age of 19, Rostockyj has only ridden for the PBR for one year. While being a college student also, Rostockyj has not had a lot of challenges yet. He has been riding for his college rodeo team as well. Since he began riding, Rostockyj has only been injured twice seriously. He has had most of the bones in his face crushed and has been hooked too. Most recently he was stepped on and that resulted in a lacerated liver, collapsed lung and his spine was pushed down cutting his spleen in half. Though he has had these injuries, he has recovered, is healthy and ready to get back to riding. He will start back up in March and plans to hit it hard! Rostockyj says, "My greatest accomplishment I think so far is making the college rodeo finals my first year!"
