We got the premieres of two long awaited movies, "Wolfpack All-city team race lll", and "To live and ride in LA" ("To live, is on Friday Sept 3rd at 930pm, "All-city, ?) Two epic films that will show the best of Los Angeles street cyclist's... Trafik has asked us to handle pre-show festivity's (alley-cat/ bike games) and work together with Beaver, who I think is hosting a ride from the westside to the premiere on Friday. Check back here for deets as it gets closer.

The Lord ll: Results

What a race. 54 people entered, 37 finished. 21.65 miles (if you didn't know the shortcut, which I will address) I feel really good and very proud of what went down yesterday, gotta give it up to all the racers for coming out and doing it, it's a tough one and next year it'll only get harder. Big thanks to all the volunteers and photo hounds, Filmer's and spectators. Thanks to the Ronin gallery and my doods for playing some awesome mixes yesterday. We went through almost 40 cases of PBR in less then 3 hours.
Impressive, thanks Pabst! Now to the race.
Bud Abille won the Frame and Bag, Congrats! I really hope you consider what I said about passing it off next year, and really keep this race alive. Rlyo got second, (Bud's Cousin) god job! Our very own Tracko, got third!!! Carla and Molly got first girl, and Jonnell got 1st under 18. Now I will say some thing about the route, in the months leading up to the race, I did clearly state that the backside of the park is where this race will be won, there are a few ways, through the park that make your route shorter. Bud and Rylo, did that, they came up from LBC and scouted routes, trained and got to know the park. Kyle, that's his back yard, and knows it better then anyone. This race is called the Lord of Griffith, and a complete Knowledge of the park is a must, as it was clearly stated months leading up to the race. Besides, the fact that it is a street race and as serious as some of you want to take it, it's still just a street race. It's meant to be fun and challenging, not taken as full sanctioned race, with course officials, judges, marked course or what have you. This something that we're trying to build towards here at TOLA!, be on the look out for that with our future races. Plus, there's always next year for those of you who feel jipped in some way. Thanks to all the sponsors, you guys made this a great day, and everyone who finished walked away with something. Thank you!

I'll be updating with Videos, at some point this week. Thanks again to everyone involved!

Thanks to Pabst, for being the final piece to the puzzle.

Wolfpack All-City Team Race lll

Wolfpack All City Team Race 3 Teaser from Bicykiller on Vimeo.

Holy Crap, I can't wait for the BFF!!! Good find Beaver.

3 Feet please!

Joe found this, and I had to share it. We both really like these jersey's and this movement. It's is really dangerous out there for us, in the streets, I cannot count how many times I have been buzzed this week alone. It's nerve racking. Just give us some space, it's not that big of a deal, you're in a car, an extra 5 seconds of your time to create a safe space is gonna not kill you, but you might kill me if you don't. Thanks.

Here's the deets and the link to where you can pick one up.

While cycling is safe, sharing space on our roads is becoming hazardous and as our numbers grow we must find ways to protect ourselves. In addition to knowing and following the rules of the road, we can solve the majority of our problems by riding visibly and predictably. But, then there's the motorist and more must be done to educate them on the importance of sharing the roads we all own and giving us at least 3 feet of clearance when they pass us from the rear.
