Florian Nicolaï is one of the most creative riders on the EWS circuit. His unique style threatens the podium at every race he enters. The Maritime Alps are home to some of the most technical tracks in the world, and working on this project over the winter showed us just how good Flo really is.
 | Flo is a weirdly fast alien on a bike. He's got creative trail vision and is one of the first riders coming up to have started out as a pure Enduro racer. Even after two strong EWS seasons taking 5th and 4th place overall, you get the feeling he's hungry for more. Can't wait to see how this season unfolds. - Brian Park, Rocky Mountain Bicycles |
| Flo is insane. I don't understand half the stuff that he does, but it's fun to watch! - Jesse Melamed, Rally Team teammate |
| This part of the world is the birthplace of Enduro. The Maritime Alps have produced some of the best riders on the planet, like Nico Vouilloz, Fabien Barel, Loic Bruni, and many others. The terrain and the culture make the difference - the trails have been here for centuries and were not made to ride, but to walk. So when you can find the flow here you're a damn good rider. - Fred Glo, Godfather of Enduro and Owner of Urge bp |
Watch for Flo and the rest of our Rally Team throughout the entire Enduro World Series season. See you on track!

Awesome style!
The creativity is amazing. Makes me wonder if he thinks of what he will do in advance or if these are just organic, instinctive moves.
@RockyMountainBicycles you should do more vids with him - SOON! ;-)
this is the motion picture testament of my lack of riding skills. very impressive to watch and at the same time i am more then confused how i should ever be able to do about 10% of what is done in the vid on my bike.
When you see him riding you just "watch and learn".
This was great Flo and we all want to see more hahaaaaaaa.
Rocky Mountain! (bike and trail, literally)
Plus wicked riding skills!
Makes me want to ride right now, too bad its not yet the weekend :-)
