CRITICAL DIRT - A Study In Crossification

CRITICAL FILM from e r t z u i ° film on Vimeo.

"CRITICAL FILM - A documentary about a very special weekend of cyclocross racing. It only took 126 km of dirt, gravel and cobblestones devided in 4 stages between Dresden and Leipzig, 80 racers, 9 hours, 35°C, 600 liters of water, a ton of food, a world cup quarterfinal and many many enthusiastic souls, to make this an unbelievable experience.

They call it "CRITICAL DIRT - A Study In Crossification".

e r t z u i ° film has captured this event along the dirt with our very own perspective."

The Epic-est American Fixy Tour Continues

The trip advances, apparently. Feel free to come up with your own captions for the pictures. Riding up and down the mountains, getting h**h etc. Note also the 'support van'.

Seems like a fun ride. I myself would probably ride geared since I dig my 'nago so much, and I'm lazy like that.

Via Prolly. 

'Coast No Coast' Documentary

Coast No Coast - Quote edit from Brock Mitchell on Vimeo.

"Coast No Coast is a new documentary that will cover the 2200 kilometer journey from Vancouver to Mexico on fixed gears."

Wait, so they're gonna ride down from Vancouver all the way to Mexico on a tricktrack bike wearing casual urban clothing? Not wanting to be a hater or anything byt that sounds damn epic for sure, just maybe for wrong reasons. I wish them all the luck!

Via Prolly again.

Helsinki - Borgaux 25.4.2010

I've talked about road cycling in the past, right? So, yesterday we did the official annual opening of the season road trip from Helsinki to the Porvoo and back, organized by BC-Hellsinki. Bit over 120km, about 5 hours of riding to Porvoo on the main road and back along some nice winding scenic small country roads. With some Kebab & pizza in between and beers afterwards. Bunch of people, girls and boys, on geared road bikes, CX bikes and track bikes came along. In Porvoo we also climbed up and descended the steepest pavéd hill street as a part of the tradition. Great fun.

Thanks to everyone on the ride and tnts for the pics!

Rapha's Northern Hell

While the real Hell of the North, Paris-Roubaix, is on next Sunday, Rapha have their own ride travelling north from London (some Brits seem to sometimes consider Essex as Hell, I guess?) on the same day.

Smell The Roses

So, while this movie is not particularly spectacular by any means, it exemplifies one of THE up-and-coming cycling trends for 2010 (especially since Cyclocross season has officially finished already): the Hipster Road Cycling. Mark my words.

Damn, even I myself am secretly building a geared 1990s-styled retro steel road bike in the darkness of my hidden underground lair...
