[biker3]

Cedric is not smooth at all from what I've seen, he barges things way too fast and out of control, kind of like Fabien. He does jump well, and he has some amazing results, but there are definitely smoother guys around.

I haven't posted on here in months and bikenweed you're usually right on but this time I'm going to pull the flag. When Cedric is on it, no ones style or smoothness comes close. If it isn't obvious that he's burnt out on the competitive side of the sport and just trying to make a living then look again....
