-Scotty Cranmer took a good crash on Sat night and had to bring his teeth home in a zip-lock bag. Rung bell, two missing teeth (roots and all) and some stitches in his lip was the outcome. He is off the bikes for a few days, Get well soon Scotty.

-Paulie Lange came down to the So Cal State championships this weekend in Orange, CA. The crew at Tangent products put on a Pro-Am for all the local Pros and Paulie placed second, not bad considering he is not an Orange local. World Champ Javier Colombo took the win. In practice Paulie jumped the entire first jump (a triple) from what we hear this has never been done.

-Interbike is next week, if you are going, stop by the FELT booth # 626 and say hello. Nora Cup party is Thursday night and Scotty Cranmer got the call that he is in the top 5 for the Ramp category.

wethepeople completes again recommended. RideUk again spoke of the 4seasons complete bike as being arguably the best on the market for the second year running. Sure we're happy, sure we're proud but it's not a coincidence because we spent the entire year working out details to make not only the newly released 2007 completes but also the new parts exactly what you'd expect. An introduction of the new full CrMo looptail cruiser, new 18'' young beginners bike, Phoenix complete and re-design touches on every single model. The range still features the finest lightweight Sanko 4130 tubing, fade color schemes, matched spokes, new wtp stamped seats and high end Primo Pro product on the Pro models. 

Flatland BMX has taken another big step into the future and anyone that was at FLAT RING was fortunate enough to witness such an event. A perfect combination of art and athletics set in an awesome venue, Cirque D’Hiver, a round building in the center of Paris that has a long history of presenting talented circus performers. Saturday night was different than the past performances because the most progressive form of bike riding would be displayed and in a manner that had the crowd on their feet with excitement and disbelief. 28 riders (including 6 international judges) had travelled from all corners of the world to participate in an invitational flatland contest presented in a battle format. The 22 competitors:
Viki Gomez (Spain), Alex Jumelin (France), Justin Miller (USA), Martti Kuoppa (FIN), Michael Steingraeber (Germany), Hiroya Morizaki (Japan), Matt Wilhelm (USA), York Uno (Japan), Keelan Phillips (UK), Nathan Penonzek (Earth), Frank Lukas (Germany),

Today we would like to inform you about some changes regarding the German Flatartcrew (FAC) and the Battle in da Club (BidC). First of all, the FAC is no longer an association, it's now an agency. The goal is to promote flatland and help it grow. Therefor the agency is going to organise contests, jams and other events. Effective partnerships and sponsorships will be made. 

Yes the name of the tour is bigger than the budget and the tourplan wasn't even ready the day we left our shop. On this tour were: Riccardo Moes (team manager), Michael v/d Lee, Dennis Keunen, Bas Brouwer, Pim v/d Bos and Paul de Jong (team coach).

-Day 1: Money spent: Euro 28.11
First day of our short tour was a cheap and easy one, we had a BBQ at Paul's Boutique's shop with some Hamburgers and Frikandellen, filled the cooler with Bavaria beer, filled the Ford Courier and Hyundai Tuscon, made some team pictures and took off with help of our friend TomTom to Trier, Germany.
