    I raced in SoCal and most of the country untill about 91 or 92. I came back about 3 years ago and tried as a 30 year old. I remember I was pretty fast back then, but it is much different now days. The tracks are 20 times harder lots more jumps. The BMX kids are not effin around anymore. With that said, if I could get my bike up here, (It is still in Cali) I would be down to try some CO tracks.

    There is a track in Aurora, but the city is letting it die and nobody is running it. That would be fun to contact the ABA and see if somebody can get that one going. It seems to be in a pretty good spot. Year round would almost be possible around here.

    I used to be sponsored by Diamondback for flatland. It was wicked fun and very tough. I'm not sure why it never garnered much respect. It had some good airtime in the 90's in the x-games, but not so much now.

    All I ever needed was just a parking lot and I was good to go!

    That's awsome. Well I'm going to get a bike regardless and start jumping again. I'm 33 but in great shape and I just want another addiction on the off weekend's I'm not racing. There was a dope track off of Broadway and countyline, in the woods and it had some crazy doubles and step-ups. I should see if it's still there.

    I remember flat land when I was racing always had much respect. When I was racing I was getting bikes from MCS. I wonder if they are still around. Anyhow I was watching X games, and some guy did a little flat land freestyle before he went into their ramp course thing. The announcers were saying, "He has a decent bit of vintage flatland freestyle." I immediatly felt old.

    I bought D's BMX bike on DansComp.com. It's tough to find BMX racing bikes and not just jumping bikes. That's all I could find in town. Mojo Wheels in Littleton has a decent selection but what a bunch o' morons. When it came time to order (it wasn't in stock), they were a mess.

    There are races at County Line BMX every Sunday April-Nov. Reg at 10. Races at 11. Done by 1. It's by the 7-11 and with all the ball fields.
