Last Saturday Myself, my Best Friend Adam & the Old Man (Dave if anyone wants to know lol) Attended the King of Concrete Flat Matters Jam. The competition was excellent! The day wasn't the best weather wise there was some high winds that did put a couple of Riders off balance a little but hey, life can't be perfect can it?! The atmosphere & the general vibe were fantastic! Flatland is a pretty small part of BMX & the UK Flatland scene is even smaller! Everyone knows each other & they welcome new people like myself with open arms! I have been to 2 contests this year (Including this one) & i have already made some great friends! I have even had a chat with a few Pros & everyone seems to get a long very well. Some of the Riders flew in from foreign countries! Canada, France, Germany & more! It was excellent to see such a turn out of Riders! There wasn't a great amount of spectators but as i mentioned Flatland is pretty small its not very well known outside of the BMX community! But everyone there seemed to be having a blast watching! Joe Cicman (Who i have made friends with!) traveled over from Canada, not only did he compete he filmed the majority of the contest too! I am going to post up the videos & i hope you will all watch & enjoy something a little different to what you are used to!
