Hey saw this the other day while surfin'.
"The National Bicycle League and a large portion of the AA Pro class met today at the NBL Christmas Classic to talk about the possibilities of the AA class "Going Flat" in Pro Series races."
......"The AA's met with the NBL as a group, and discussed the option, and the consensus across the board from the AA Pros, was positive to the proposed action."
I don't know about everyone else but I personally think it's great. I never really liked the whole SPD thing in BMX, don't get me wrong I don't see it as cheating like some people argued. I really think flats was what bmx was all about, I mean you wouldn't see anyone racing Hell Track in SPD's or anything. I also think it got some younger kids in a little over their heads a little too fast, just trying to win. I know if it all goes thru I might just have to start racing again when I get my little boy started here in a year or so(he'll be 4 in may).
oh yeah here's the link I found it on BMXmania there's another article and a few more links I think
