Total driving time: 15 hours with nasty traffic in New Jersey Total riding time: 4 hours before the rain hit Satisfied: Yes Jams are the most positive aspect of flatland for me. No pressure. No cares. Just ride your bike and enjoy yourself. That's what we try to do when we're alone at our favorite spots. That's why we keep doing it. But to be in a lot with 80 other flatlanders is a great feeling. It justifies the flatland mentality of spending hour after hour practicing tricks on bikes. To actually hit the trick in front of another member of your tiny community instead of being like a tree falling in the woods. It's definitely worth the drive time. The York Jam is just something I never want to miss. It's a pretty good excuse for me to get out of New England and ride with other people too. Aside from the dismal New England turnout, there were quite a few riders there. Since it was held the week after the Philadelphia X-Games, there were some big names there like Marcos Jesus, Stephen Cerra, and Matt Wilhelm. Bobby Carter also made the trek from Hollywood with Steve Scheurer to hang out, ride, and film for Diversion. This was the first year I remember having a group photo, so you should check that out if you want to see the majority of who was there. |
