 Like the t-shirt says, "I Drove 3,000 Miles To Ride My Bike In A Parking Lot" (Ok, almost 3,000.) York Jam 2009 capped off the ultimate road trip June 20th in the very new and very spacious Sovereign Bank stadium lot. Flatlanders came from across the country to share some good times and witness some serious Flat by some of the greatest riders ever to grace the sport.. |

 There are so many things to say about that event, I don´t even know from where I can start. Friday night, riders hooked up at the infmaous Lyon spot called « small place » for a photo session mixed up with a drinking party. The spot is also famous because of the slippery ground paved with various holes, but Lyon locals were joined by riders from the center of France, Alpines and some Parisians... |

 Upholding the tradition, Hollywood jam numero 13. For those of you that don´t know, named after the flatlander "Hollywood" Steve and NOT for the city of Hollywood. We all saw it "Under new management", what? Or something like that, Richard and Ahmed teamed up and are responsible for making this one happen and with less than a month of time to get organized. I would have to say that they did an excellent job in tackling the tasks of putting out a flyer, filming, editing and posting a little promo video and also wrangling up some top notch sponsors as well. Zuma Beach is always the place of choice for the springtime portion of the on going series. We could not have asked for a better day. Not too sunny or hot and no sweat in the rain department either, nice one. |

 A while ago I read some comments on Global-Flat from back in Canada asking about my mate Eric. I met Eric in Hyde Park a few months back, we´ve been riding together quite frequently since then and been at two contests, too. I decided to ask him if it was okay for me to shoot some pics and ask some questions to give the Global-Flat audience a quick update of his life. |

 A western view on a city like Kuwait can be skewed… From the way we see the middle-east reported on the news, to pre-conceived ideas, I think the picture we have is different from the reality. We were really excited when Saad got in touch with us, as the whole ethos of global-flat is to be truly global. Hearing that there are flat riders out in Kuwait got us really keen to find out more, and to have our notions of what their world is like shattered or confirmed. Ladies and Gentlemen, it gives us great honour to introduce April’s Rider of the Month, Saad Al-Suraye! |
