Never seen it before until yesterday. It was on my old bike movies list:

The intro and exit have some pretty need flatland bmxing that I think schools any of those fixed gear flatland videos today. Plus the outfits are awesome.

Got a few more on the list:

Breaking Away (1979)
A Sunday In Hell (1976)
American Flyers (1985)
2 Seconds (1998)
BMX Bandits (1983)
Höllentour (aka Hell On Wheels, 2004)
The Flying Scotsman (2006)
The Greatest Show on Earth (1974)
Rad (1986)
Quicksilver (1986)

My brother and I watched this movie at least once a day. I have "Send me an angel" on my iPod.

I loved this movie as a kid. The stuff they did was mind blowing to an 11 year old. I can't remember what it even was about except there was an awesome backflip.

Also that's a great list you have. I'd add premium rush to it.

I used to watch the credit sequence to get pumped up before flatland competitions back in the 80s. RL Osborne rocked

such an awesome movie! I got a Redline RL 20II after that movie, that's the bike RL Osborne was riding... that was about the closest thing to a Richard Sach's a 12 y/o could have gotten at that time...
