Sixteen of the top Flatland BMX athletes from across the globe will descend on the Crescent City for the 5th edition of Red Bull Circle of Balance on December 17. The hand-selected riders will take their skills to the floor at New Orleans’ iconic Mardi Gras World - a venue as atmospheric and artistic as the sport itself. Flatland is a complex and progressive discipline of BMX that can best be described as dancing on a bike. Bike enthusiasts from around the world can watch all the action live on Red Bull TV.
Sixteen invite-only athletes representing nine countries will go head-to-head in a bracket style, seeding competition. No ramps, no rails; just the riders, their bikes and the New Orleans floor.
In the run-up to the World Championships, Nikita Ducarroz had been diagnosed with Epstein-Barr virus, but in Abu Dhabi the BMX freestyle specialist was able to show her potential. As in the previous year, the Olympic medalist finished second place. The Swiss American explains in the interview what the medal means to her and talks about her next big goal. Nikita Ducarroz won the silver medal at the BMX Freestyle World Championships held as part of the Urban Cycling Championships in Abu Dhabi. After an unsuccessful first run, the 26-year-old from Geneva living in North Carolina advanced to second place thanks to an excellent performance in her second run. As at last year’s World Championship in Montpellier, the Olympic bronze medalist from Tokyo was beaten only by Hannah Roberts from the USA. Olympic champion Charlotte Worthington (GBR) finished the competition in fifth place.
These are 8mm movies shot by my uncle Jon Cobin of me (Matt Macarewich) and my little brother Trevor along with my racing friends from Capistrano Beach, Ca. racing BMX at Escape Country (aka Robinson Ranch) in 1974 and 75.

We recently collaborated with TEEL Bikes to support their effort to bring the Peregrine Master mag wheel back from obscurity. Redline Bicycles worked closely with Peregrine in the 1980s, distributing, and specifying, many of their components on the Redline Freestyle bike ranges. Now, in 2022, TEEL Bikes - owners of the Peregrine brand - will open the door of opportunity for BMX collectors, enthusiasts, and riders to preorder and purchase this excellent wheelset in its original specification and build their dream bikes.
The opening offer includes a Trifecta" deal that may appeal to our RL 20 II Owners. Choose and preorder any three of the five colors for a $89 discount and free US shipping within the USA on orders placed before the end of November 2022.
