Popis:	106 Motivation is complex and personal but an integral part of any work domain. Through qualitative open ended interviews this paper explores individuals unique experiences as professional BMX riders. The paper explores how professionals in a lifestyle sport experience risk taking, goal orientation, and career orientation in relation to their understanding of motivations. The paper uses the definitions of Self-Determination Theory to specifically explore the ideas of competency, relatedness, and autonomy. The findings suggest that these individuals are intrinsically motivated to take risks and set goals while placing little value on objective rewards.
