For the 17th year in a row, the death-defying Masters of Dirt riders rocked the Vienna Stadthalle. The show remained true to the Masters of Dirt motto, displaying a dazzling array of “Total Freestyle” performances from the worlds top athletes as they showed their skills to the avid audience in Vienna, Austria. The entourage of adrenaline junkies was accompanied by English pyrotechnical performers, The Fuel Girls and Austrian icon DJ Mosaken.
Rising star, nine-year-old Harry Schofield from England showed the euphoric audience his very first backflip on dirt. Other young guns 11-year-old Lennox Zimmermann from Germany and 12-year-old Canadian Jackson Goldstone were both daring enough to land their first double flips.

Re-up from 2008. True story. By Todd Bank.
The Schwinn Scramblers were the only bike we could afford at the time. They were heavy duty steel and their frames were indestructible and their parts were easy to get at local bike stores. The problem was not the frame but the other parts that bent or broke all the time. The one piece cranks would bend at the spindle, the single clamp Schwinn stems would always slip at the impact of a jump landing and the handle bars would lock in the forward “Low-rider” position, the steel rims would bend like crazy
