“Before fixed-gear bikes became de rigueur for urban aesthetes, they were the weapon of choice for Japan’s fearless Keirin cyclists. A gladiatorial incarnation of track cycling that dates back to 1948, the Japanese sporting phenomenon operates by an intricate set of rules that sees competitors jostling for position on steeply banked tracks at lightning fast speeds, all but encouraging spectacular crashes.” – NOWNESS

Kyle and I live several states away from each other.  I was fortunate enough to have him and his wife Amanda in town from Dallas this Christmas Holiday.  We rode bikes, drank expensive scotch and came up with a lot of good ideas that will benefit you; the ever demanding, creative desiring, rider of all things fun and supportive Folly following selves!

Here are a few photos, enjoy!

I was watching some old Toy Machine videos the other day with Kyle Steed and was re-introduced to “Diego The Butcher”. This guy rides with a ridiculous amount of speed!
