Paris Street/Tricks Contest

Posted 17 February 2010 | By rbdx | Categories: Ketjes Fixed Gear | 6 Comments

After some electroshocks at our old continent, I quote “the Milwaukee Midwest Mayhem, and the San Diego Cult Classic 2“, it’s time to wake up. Big up for our French neighbours to organize a street/tricks contest in Paris. Through the pignonfixe.com forum I understood that they did the contest to feel the French skill for street and tricks. After videos by the crew Geometrick you can really feel that France is getting up a level.
For Belgium we are really at the beginning of something. I mean for street/tricks with 700c. There is big trickster Karel from dealer bicycle crew, though. I hope he will be present in Paris, this guy has a natural coolness for tricks. Big up to Sho to push forward the Brussels scene to street/tricks with the regular meetings at the secret place. Hope there will be Belgian rider at the Paris contest. Here is the link for registration, I think they need more no-Parisians.
