iS tHIS 4 REAL!?

This awesome edit reminds me that I completely forgot to mention that that previous attempt failed because the guys ran out of money, or got bored, or just decided to stay in Denver drinking brewskies and smoking some dank nugs or whatever.

Ted Shreddin' It!

This old pic from the MASH Tour de California 2009 resurfaced on forums somewhere. Drop a chain while bombing a hill on a breakless fixie skidder biek, clipless and rocking SIDIs?

The Epic-est American Fixy Tour Hits Santa Fe

The American Fixed Gear(tm) tour is getting more interesting than following last TdF, actually. I, among many other people I guess, am wishing these guys the best of luck once they will actually hit the mountains, riding -brakeless and all that.

The Great American Fixed Gear Epic

"8 states,
5 thousand miles,
2 lovers,
0 brakes.

July 20th Nikol Heathcock and Jon Keller left Austin, TX. We will be bearing the summer heat of Texas in late July, climbing over the highest points in the Rockies in August, fighting the winds of the Pacific Coast in September, and crossing the desolate and unforgiving deserts of the South-West in October. And we are doing it all with one gear and no brakes!

Follow us as we explore local bike culture in the cities along the way and the wilderness in between. We will be keeping a blog, photo journal, product reviews, and more."

And you can follow these guys epic adventure HERE....

'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.

Maglia Nera

"From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: Maglia Nera

The "Maglia Nera" was a black jersey awarded as a symbolic prize in cycling competition at the Giro d'Italia, given to the last man to finish the race. It was allocated between 1946 and 1951.

There was real competition to win this particular jersey. Especially noted are the struggles between Sante Carollo and Luigi Malabrocca, to see whom could waste the most time. Each tried to lose more time than the other by hiding in bars, barns, and behind hedges, or even by puncturing their own wheels. In 1948 the honor was awarded to the Tuscan Aldo Bini, who according to some journalists and fans of the time, stubbornly continued the race until the end, despite a broken right hand suffered in a mass crash, and the suffering that especially in the mountain stages forced him to get off the bike and push it uphill. The special ability of the black jersey was, in addition to not being "discovered", to reach the finish directly within the maximum time.

The term "maglia nera" was later used in other contexts to indicate the bottom club in a league, often giving it a negative connotation.

In 2008 a similar "black number" was introduced, won by Markus Eichler of Team Milram."
