Anyone remember the flatland rider Larry Bull?



He is now a  Professor of Artificial Intelligence, based in the School of Computer Science (UWE).

that looks like the sort of job that corresponds to the photo.

He definitely looks a professor.

I believe he was one of the first UK flatlanders to do squeaking tricks (apart from the switzerland squeaker) and rollings tricks.
Tricks like front yards, funky chickens, that switcharound backwards squeaker thing (can't remember what that was called - maybe a wheelchair?) then onto things like whiplashes.


I also remember him riding a bike a couple of years before that with his handlebars so far forward they were almost horizontal.  :2funny:

I emailed him earlier this year through his website inviting him to join Rad, I got a nice reply but due to his commitments he doesnt get a lot of free time  :(
