I am Jealous Right Now. Why Is there no LA Showings? We spoke with Grace from L2P and she said ther was going to be, we had a date and then... POOOF nothing. WTF? Why no Love? I looked on the site and LA isn't even listed anymore. We had a bunch of local hype ready to go, a race planned ETC. GRACE I am disappointed.. We would love to support something like this, it's hard when our city gets looked over. Anyway here is the recap and a few pictures from the iMiNUSD screenings. Looks like a great turnout!. click below.
As many of you know, we hosted a back-to-back movie premiere of fixed-gear films “London to Paris” and “The Revival.” In typical fashion, we extended an invitation to all of our friends, near and far. I was surprised to see so many people in attendance, some traveling from as far north as Vallejo, California. In total, we had close to 100 in the shop and even more outside trying to get in. Snacks and refreshments were served to keep our guests pleased throughout the hour and a half run time.
While setup was going on, we started a bike pile to accommodate for our 90+ guests. Outside, we had local and sponsored riders tricking around and keeping spectators entertained. This is just one of the shots of the bike pile, a complete amalgamation of track and tarck setups. Pretty impressive to see everyone customizing their bikes to meet each rider’s specific needs, whether it’s built for speed or built to take a beating.
Everyone made their way inside and the screening began right on schedule. The whole thing went off without a hitch. Grace Ladoja’s film, “London to Paris,” screened first and definitely kept everyone’s attention. Some of our favorite riders like Massan and Super Ted were just two of the group of ten that made the huge trek from London to Paris. From speaking with some of the audience, many enjoyed that this documentary had a narrative that purposefully kept our guests interested. The beautiful European landscape and team of seasoned riders was satisfaction enough, but hearing the rider’s personal experience gave us all a wave of inspiration to hop on our bikes and ride.
