Momo even got in on the action. Check back soon for the final edit. Topics include: Jam coverage, frame debate, old videos digitized and posted on the web and few other thoughts. A lot of fun.

2011 Portland Winter Classic

The Portland Winter Classic went down this past weekend. A lot of fun. Good vibe with a lot of flat and street riding happening.

Some good coverage of the jam:

2011 Portland Winter Classic Flatland Jam - January 15

It is winter in Portland which means cold temps, rain and flatland. The boys have secured an indoor spot, so rain or shine, the jam is on. The usual applies: Prejam on Friday, 1/14 at 6pm. Then the jam on Saturday from noon 'til about 7pm. Afterwards, we'll retire to a local watering hole and sample some of Portland's finest libations.

Space Ark - Kobe, Japan

Got back from Japan about a week or so ago. One of the highlights was visiting Space Ark in Kobe (http://www.spaceark.jp/). It's a mostly flatland specific shop, actually when I moved to Japan in 2001 I went there and caught the bug to get back into riding. I ended up buying a chrome EP at the time (didn't know the Ares brand back then, having been out of riding for a bit). Anyway, the shop and staff are extremely cool people. If in Japan, it's one of those places you have to visit (if flatland is your thing).

Matt Wilhelm - Autumn Afternoon

Perhaps the finest bit of riding I've seen this year.
