The first stop of the 2012 Trans Jam Bmx Contest Series just finished, and the contest series is rapidly becoming one of the most talked about events taking place on the East Coast. With a $3500 pro purse, a large course of assorted ramps, 50 Old School bikes in the Vintage Bike Display, vendors and exhibitors, mix of young up and coming pros as well as veterans of the sport all competing, the Charlotte stop of the series was a day filled with top notch riding based around a laid back atmosphere of fun, camaraderie, and nostalgia.

Of the 52 entries for the day, a good amount were riding the flatland portion. The Beginner class had a Trans Jam first, with father and son entering the same division, Steve Nowak (father) just edging out his son Indy. Trans Jam regular Mark Coates easily won the class with a good variety of front wheel tricks executed flawlessly. The expert class winner Andrew Wickman was seen doing perhaps the most original trick of the day in practice- a seat wheelie rolling backwards straight into a decade (brakeless).
