Rich Upjohn
I just got back a little while ago from NE Flat finals — more of you guys need to get in your cars and drive out there. It was super laid-back as usual, with not many people this time to compete. It seemed that people were having bad day: We all were pulling stuff in practice, but when it came time to compete our tricks left us.

In the Pro class Brian Chapman rode agianst Rich Upjohn and Chris Poulos. Brian did some serious back wheel links and some crazy upside down pedaling mega spins for first place. Rich Upjohn gave us a taste of old school style and also nailed a nice f-truck. Chris once again fought back with his smooth style mixing some old school with the new and making sure to end his links in some way of going over the head tube.

Myke Yeager entered the Senior class but had to get bumped into Pro. He got the year-end title in Senior with some sick fast pinky squeak links — this guy is sick for being 32 (haha).
