Crusty
excellent work so far. the content and the piecing together of it flows well and builds, but maybe that is me just being a sucker for anything fixed-related. Looking forward to the finished product.

excellent...makes me want to put the toe-clips back on and spend the afternoon track-standing in traffic (such as it is around here).

looking forward to the final cut (and to watch it with sound...i'm at work now, in a cube, and the headphones are busted).

Very cool! I have never seen skidding done, so that was cool. Would love to see it in real time.

It looked really good. The only shot I question is the openner, with the sun shining into your lens. The shot is really shakey and the lens is dirty. This shot seemed out of place since all of the rest of the shots were framed really well. Can't wait to see more.

Very surreal images, loved the sounds and fades. Makes me want to go ride at night on the silent, empty streets of downtown.

I like it, alot! Maybe add just a shot or two of some real time footage. Maybe something like a nice ride between two buses with a good long skid to position themselves in front of one of them. Just a thought is all.

lens isnt dirty. the image is washed out from the sun and glare. like i said, rough cut, not color corrected yet..keep your chamois on.

Good stuff. What is that front hub in the second shot? I recall seeing something like that somewhere, but I can't find it.

nope. Im gonna find someone to write original music for it, but in the meantime, machine drum's cream soda part one will have to do.

and by the way, terra (the girl behind the bus) does not ride fixed, just Singlespeed.not thats shes not awesome, just wanted to point that out.

Morell was a no-show last time we taped. He was invited...oh well..Chris was late, too..oh well..Jeremy's antics were only witnessed during/after bike polo. which I didn't have equipment for. And, during the CCC2, he wasnt riding, only directing...so...anyways.

No worries, Jeremy will be a star.

Terra rides SS, thats cool..Not gonna hate on her for it...besides, the shot is too cool to leave out.

have no fear cyclorat...we are prolly gonna meet up this weekend...weather will be great, bike polo for sure, maybe some crazy antics before and after. how come I havent seen you at bike polo last two or three weeks? PM me if ya want, Ill keep you updatd on shoot dates.

Lon showed up. Lon rode his bike a lot. Thats why he's in there. Dont worry..its only a rough cut..

Very nicely done. Took me a while to get a look at it as my quicktime drivers needed updating.

I actually don't mind the traffic... goes with that dreamlike - surreal quality... sorta whalesongish...

great footage. you worked in good shots of the city like a pro. i liked the music, as well.

hey, chicago, my friend Eric the Red is coming there in a few weeks. treat him well. good fixie rider and great guy. he'll probably be broke by then, so he should be working with y'all at some point.
