MONSTERTRACK 7 Video
As if there wasn't enough excitement, hype, and internet media attention surrounding the world's premiere track only alley cat, here's some more....
SHAMELESS SELF PROMOTION
As well as a bunch of other new rants, photos, interviews, and other self serving egotistical bike messenger crap. Enjoy!

s_9 hitting the bus was a lot funnier in real-time. That slow-mo **** in the new video just looked odd.

LOL, that was hilarious, 1 minute into the race and someone slams right into the side of a cab...

What's a cab doing that far up north? They don't like going up there. Must be sabotage. Just like that bus that jumped in front of s_9.

For me the weirdest part of the race wasn't seeing more taco'd
wheels than in any other alley cat I've been in, but it was seeing
2 Kryptonite/NYC type chains in the middle of the street in midtown.
The chains were just undone lying there..... The pack that I was
in just shrugged and said "WTF?" I still don't understand how that
happened. A) Why would you ride a race with an extra 10 lbs
instead of a u-lock? B) How did it get unlocked and into the middle
of the road?

B) A lot of folks don't lock them around their waist, they just hook the lock through it and let the open lock dangle. It works most of the time.
That would be pretty weird though, especially since those chains are like $50 a piece by themselves. Seems like kind of a waste unless you're going to win.
