The North Race – HALLEY-CAT 03/11/12 from Restrap on Vimeo.
BOOYA! Found this sweet gem over at Deaf Pigeon! Looks like It’s gonna be a rad alley cat.
This was such a great encore to the bad ass South In Yo Mouth bike polo tournament I just came from. I meet up with Blevins Bicycle Co. in Birmingham, BAMA to catch a close look at the first race in the BAMAcross Cyclocross series!
Davis came out fully prepaired to dominate the field.
As you can see here, he be gettin it!! YEEEE
Davis be clean no more. At the start of the race there were only a few rain drops. When it came time for Davis to race, full on downpour, I love it; and as you can see, so did Davis’ kit, bike, face, body…
So, I wish I would have had the rain gear that Matt instructed me to pick up on my way to Birmingham. I underestimated how much rain was actually gonna hit. Although it made for an amazing first race in the BAMAcross series, I didn’t get out into the field for better actions shots.
Beers, brats and cyclocross made for an awesome day out in the rain. Davis ended up getting 3rd in cat 3. I got to drink brewskis, eat good food and capture some cyclocross love; then packed up and crashed back at Folly HQ .5 BAMA. Such a fun filled weekend. Can’t wait for this week’s/weekend’s events.

South In Yo Mouth was epic!!! I got in Friday evening to meet up with Adam Hite and Brett Edmonds (Event Directors) at the courts. Such an effort to buy, transport, and build up the two courts. The courts were immediately used when they were finished being constructed. The passionate bike polo vibe was/is deeply engrained with this tournament and the people involved!!
11 states were represented (Missouri, Michigan, Florida, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Texas, Arkansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Colorado) with 24 teams battling to win the tournament! 
The tournament started at 10. The coffee/beers were flowing as the teams gathered in prep for the day 
And everyone was off. After a short gathering of all the teams to go over some rules, the action started.
Folly love was in full effect. I was asked by just about everyone what team I was on, or if I played bike polo. It was an awkward response when I said that I didn’t, and that I was just there to promote bike polo as well as the Ride x Create vibe; everyone was super supportive and was diggin it. As with most bike culture, It’s like instant family. I, and the idea of Folly, were welcomed with open arms.
The two courts were right in front of the University of Memphis Tigers stadium. Pretty rad location.
Skid!
The bracket was full of great teams; “Texas Trill won the tournament. They only lost once and that was in the final game, but since they were still in the winner’s bracket both teams had to play again and they won the second game.” Super tight competition.
I camped in Brett’s backyard Friday and Saturday night (nice backyard Mr. Edmonds). Very thankful for a location to crash. If you are even remotely close to Memphis, TN, make sure to get in on the action from Memphis Hardcourt Bike Polo! “We play every Wednesday & Sunday at 7:30pm at Bluff City Sports. Open to anyone, beginner or experienced, male or female, young or old!” You will be welcomed with open arms.
*Also, keep a close eye on Memphis Hardcourt Bike Polo for their next tournament. This was a really good turn out. I’m sure it wont be the last. Ride x Create Folly friends!!
These are SO RAD! I don’t typically get this hyped about a pair of sneakers, but these hit the spot. I gotta hand it to Brian (Chrome’s Press Contact) for targeting Folly with these dope Urban SPD shoes. I hope you guys dig these, we most definitely are. Make sure to head over to Chrome for a closer look at the Lower Southside Pro!
“For Fall 2012 Chrome is proud to announce a new SPD shoe, the Lower Southside Pro.
