Totally fucked.

I was trying to come up with a way to post this story for some time now, I'm at a loss for words, so I'm just gonna link these two stories from BikesideLA. He puts it in better words then I ever could. When will the time come that motorist's are held accountable for their actions? I sick of hearing about hit and runs, and horror stories like what happened to Birdman. I have been hit, run over many times, and only once has the driver stopped, and she stopped because she turned into her drive way right after nailing me. There has to be end to this. How can you drive away, knowing that you just hit a fellow human being with your car? I don't understand.

To All Racers and Spectators, this Thursday we'll be going back to Downtown LA to continue with the tradition of the DTLA Grand Prix Summer Series. We haven't held any races this summer in Downtown because of the heavy police presence and past conflict with them. So if all goes well, the Dewap Loop, will be our next race this Thursday. If LAPigD do happen to show up, please let's be courteous and maintain order so that we can relocate to "Plan B" Keep your beers in paper bags!

Happy Birthday Juan!!!

This guy, is the best. One of the first if not the first rider I met upon moving to LA. I love him. Happy bday Big dogg! Come wish the big man a happy Bday at Red Lion tonight, 930pm.

You have been warned. Stay tuned for Sponsor highlights as the date gets closer. I will say this, if you raced the Chubby Boob Summer Games, this past Sunday you know half the course, but it's a lot more then that.

2010 Rumble Through the Bronx Alleycat

Got this from Prolly. Wow, as an Alley cat racer, you can whatever you please to get to the finish, but trying to take out a fellow racer is just crazy and fucked up. While I wasn't there, (but would love to race this race) I'm not passing judgement on either party, just watch and judge for yourself. Other then that, what a fucking awesome video.

Summerfix Trick Jam

SummerFix Trick Jam from AMBUSHE on Vimeo.

What a weekend. Holy crap. I'm dead tired. So much fun, so much good riding, here's and edit from Andrew. Nice work. The trick was sick, riders were really throwing themselves around and breaking out some big moves. Fakie wheelie from Steven Jensen, Wonka's insane wallride, huge 180's from Jakob. Wonka won the jam, good job! Tony Z won the race! My legs hurt so bad from the race yesterday. Thanks to LAB for an awesome weekend, Chubby Boob, Tracko and big props to Ace for throwing an amazing race. I haven't race in more then a few months, and that was probably the best way to get me back into it. So hard. Everyone just looked defeated afterwards. It was a three mile climb up Mt. Hollywood, then a three mile descent down the backside, (crazy bombing skills were needed or a brake) then a three lap, four mile a lap crit, (a mile or so of climbing) ugh. I would be posting pics but I left my camera cord at home. Sad. I'm gonna write a more in depth post, once I get my pics downloaded. I'm sure the blog'o'sphere is going right now with pics and videos from the whole weekend, so I'm really not in a rush, but look for that.

1000th post!

It my 1000th post. Wow. Big thanks to my man Joe, for without him there be no TOLA! I'm really hype as what we have been doing and what we will be doing. Look for some big changes to the blog, coming soon! But, most of all, a really big thanks goes out to you guys, for supporting us, by reading our little blog and coming out to our events. Big shit is on the way, so get ready. TOLA!

This Weekend in LA

Holy crap, there's a lot going on. I'll see you at all of them.

Yes, I took Images from Prolly, and Tracko, but I'll be seeing them tonight and they can give me shit for it.

DTLA Summer Series: Race 3: Results

Alright, What can I say about last night? Wild. Best turn out yet! Great course. Big props to Ash (happy bday), Boo-boo and Pork for holding it down. Pork you get the bonus props for cleaning the course hours before the race started. Nice work guys! I promise to race the last few of the series, I don't know what i wrong with me... Anyways.. To this photo and the winner. (blurry I know, but I had to snap it fast) When you see JTR roll up, on his road bike, with his track bike strapped to his back, you know he's in it to win both races. While this was fucking awesome and the best entrance to a race I have seen, the racers (road and fixed) kind of collectively groaned at this sight. He stomped both races, back to back. What a beast. Congrats JTR!
