Flatmonkey Bmx was created by local Flatland Rider Chris
Ridener to outreach to the youth and adults and help them to
come to know God and Jesus Christ our Savior and Lord. Chris
has served in the U.S. Military for the past nine years.  He has
competed in some form of Bmx since 1980.  He returned to
Flatland Bmx about 3 years ago and started performing demos
at military installations. He has now expanded Flatmonkey Bmx
into a youth and outreach ministry.  He performs shows local
and National.  He helps promote Christian Based Companies
like: One Praise Magazine, Visions Xpressed, ZJAM Radio, and
Witness Bmx who are also sponsors.  He is on numerous
Christian Based Websites and will be seen in numerous Christian
based medias throughout 2007.  He also has a close relationship
with various Christian Musicians and Artist.  He has performed
in Videos like Flatstyle Vol. 1 and has his own video coming out
early fall.
