Edward King (born October 9, 1964, in the Philippines[1] (in 1970 his family settled in Chula Vista, California[2])) is an "Old School" former professional Bicycle Motocross (BMX) racer whose prime competitive years were from 1977 to 1985.

Other nicknames included "Silver Bullet" "Eddy the King" and "The Dynamic Duo" which he shared with Diamondback teammate Harry Leary.

Included under the title of "National" are American Bicycle Association (ABA) Gold Cup Qualifiers.

It was the same race in which his younger brother Mike King won the 1988 ABA National No.1 pro title.

He raced in the ABA Springnationals in Bakersfield, California on March 20 & 21, 1993 in the new Veteran Pro class with fellow retired pros including Tommy Brackens, Perry Kramer and Rod Beckering.

[13] He also raced Veteran Pro at the ABA Fall Nationals in Burbank, California on October 22, 1994, coming in sixth with Brian Patterson winning the event.

Primary sponsorships can be verified by BMX press coverage and sponsor's advertising at the time in question.

This coupled with drug testing instituted by the ABA in the late 1990s and later by the NBL, USA Cycling and the UCI, allegations of steroid use against BMX racers-either out of jealousy or real knowledge-fell.

After retiring after the 1988 season, Eddy King became a full-time real estate broker (fellow BMX racer Cheri Elliott would become one as well approximately 14 years later after her mountain bike (MTB) racing career).

Indeed, his career in that field started before retirement selling his first house, his own in the summer of 1987 for US$180,000,[29] which was the equivalent to US$328,468.31 in 2007(Cost of Living Calculator Archived 2008-09-14 at the Wayback Machine).
