On Saturday 9 September 2006 the Flatland elite will be in paris for the FlatRing contest. With riders on the program such as Viki Gomez, Alex Jumelin, Martti Kuoppa, Bram Verhallen, Terry Adams, Michael Steingraeber, Frank Lukas, York Uno, Matt Wilhelm and a whole bunch more, there is only one spot where you need to be on the second September Saturday. The Cirque d'Hiver, located in the heart of Paris, will host the contest and the riders will battle for 10.000 Euros in prize money. The info lists that this will be the first BMX event in Paris since ten years but I'm sure others will argue that. Needless to say, book your trip to Paris and bring your lady too for some late night romance along the Seine.
If you want to watch practice you gotta show up between 4pm and 7pm. The contest starts at 8pm and will be followed by a Cocktail VIP party.
There are 1500 seats available and tickets are 12 Euros. For the latest info go to:
