Greatest video/song, ever!!!!!!!

Im So Solid, I Go So Hard, I Ride My Bikes,I Dont Need My Car!!!!!!

There is hope for the youth of today.

I just sold my colnago and bought the trike in that video.
Good idea. :D

Cool points to mention:

-The bikes are homemade custom-mods.

-The video and song are 100% independent

-The kids are in High School

-The kids are literally bombarded with car culture, yet chose bike culture on their own.


It may seem silly to some, but I think it's rad. Best street movement yet.

Can anyone ghost ride their fixed gear that well? Nothing like ghost riding a nice whip.

If this thread doesn't get at least half as many views as the "bike culture is doomed" thread, then well I guess people just don't like bicycles.

Thank you Trunk Boiz. I was beginning to think I single-handedly co-opted bike culture. I'm glad to see there's still an underground element in the cycling community. Off to build up a scraper bike and hop on the bandwagon...

You'll need to build up a trike, if you plan on doing any serious wagon- hopping. Just sayin'.

I can't get enough of it, I keep listening to it. As I've gotten older I've found a love for main stream rap. Mainly cause of the production, but this song is just infectious.

From "Probably a bad idea" hybrid miss-and-out/ crit race in Gastown, Vancouver a couple of weeks ago. Tenten is ghost riding the whip to the finish line with a bunch of riders coming up fast behind. Props to Trent for photo.

Ghost Ride the Bike, coolest ever. Along with the one man critical mass at lunchtime.

"You see me ridin two wheels scraper bike
Scratchin' down the hill like I came from Hikin
Pull a lezbo, get away from dike"
From the block to the b?? I'm always ridin"

Worst slant rhyme ever.

I seriously want a trike. With shocks though.

in the bay we ride SCRAPERS you can smell the tires rub not no donk. 2 diffrent type of cars like hyphy and crunk 2 diffrent things learn bout it or get l-o-s-t

I think that clarifies it.

that does not clarify anything

I really like how many times those kids almost got hit by cars in that video. straight ********.

that does not clarify anything

I was going to say this, but I thought I'd sound too white. that appears to not be a concern of yours.

hahahaha. I was actually thought of adding "or I'm just too white" to that post, but refrained.

holy ****ing ****. that was so good.

i really almost bought a trike today at the swap meet. I didn't have enough money though.

scrapers are old cars with nice wheels... these are the bike version.

^ thank you ^

^^Ahh, because the tires scrape the inside of the wheel wells. I get it now...

I really like that song! I hope to see a buch of scraper bikes locked up outside the hip hop club next weekend.

I'm excited to see youth excited about bikes. Otherwise, this video cause me to throw up in my mouth just a little.

Wouldn't the bike version be something like a Schwinn Varsity or a Ross with Gold Deep-Vs?
