I find flatland to be "spiritual" for lack of a better word. Helps to keep you young. Somehow I don't have the worries that most of the people around me seem to have. Riding my bike releases me from them.

Name: Kurt
From: Mid-Ohio Valley, USA
Age: 37

I started riding in about 1984.  Started out in BMX, then shifted to Freestyle.  Back in the day, I had a Haro FST, then a mid-80's Master.  After I went to college, I needed some cash and sold my bike.  From then until now, I've watched others do flatland whenever I could and have always tried to keep up with the sport by occasionally getting some magazines to see what was happening.

I've got a 7 year old boy now, and I've been teaching him a few tricks.  I'm looking to get back into riding myself now as the "bug" has bitten me and I think that some non-aggressive flat could be a great form of exercise for an "old" guy like me.  ^_^

btw: NICE Master Timo!

I guess small introduction won't hurt.

Name: Timo
Nickname: "2Fresh"
From: Helsinki, Finland
Age: 33
Years riding: 19
Current bike: '92 Haro Ground Master

Here it is:


There's too much stuff to write about all at once, but in brief I started in 1988, rode vert and flat then gradually moved to flatland only. I am stuck in the early 90's in my flatland tricks but it's all good. I also collect 80's BMX/freestyle bikes and memorabilia these days, i like nostalgia. You can view my 80's freestyle bikes collection with all the details and stories at the museum.
I'm still continuing my old hobby, skateboarding (since 1986) in my old school style.

Thanks for reading.

-Timo
love the 1992 Master takes me back.

Hah...me too.

Name: Nate
From: Florida
Years riding: 4 straight...on and off for about 8 (2 weeks flatland)
Bike: Suelo Simple V2

  I hit a flatspot in trials where I couldn't get much over bar height, taps were getting frustrating, and I couldn't gap to front farther than I could gap straight to rear,a nd all the spots around here got old...so I decided to give it a break and give flatland a REAL shot.  I've always messed around, but with a trials bike around, when I got frustrated, I would hop back on teh trials rig.  I sold her, so now I have nothing else...

Hey my name is Evan, I'm 21, from Australia and I have a 2007 GT Performer...


I used to race a bit of motocross but now I live in the city my race bikes are too far away.

I have been trying flatland for about a month now and I am here to learn all that I can from experienced riders.

Ride free and all that  ;D
