Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Funny thing is, they're still filming.

The SF one is going to have some more scenes than the Vegas one.

wow. not sound like some pretentious film critic or anything, but the photography and editing in this trailer alone are absolutely incredible.

Thanks Adam!
Those of you who've seen MASH will recognize several guys in Macaframa. I don't want to ruin the surprise but you already know about James Newman. The MASH family as a whole has been very supportive and we owe them a lot (and we're big fans of the first movie, not to mention the new Armstrong short). The premiere is free, our gift to the city we love. Our sponsors have kicked down very hard with the prizes as well, so make sure you come to the race beforehand, we'll make sure you have a seat for the first screening.

The cinematography alone in this video is enough to go see it.I've showed it to people who have no idea what a track bike is and they totally dig it. That being said, I'm trying to make it out to the premier if I can get a ride.

it was awesome. there are some tricks i havent seen before, some long shots of amazing feats of speed, a few funny moments, a few cringe moments, steep ass hills, and of course it was shot beautifully...the music was awesome too.

i'll definitely be picking it up on DVD when it comes out.

Definitely a different style from MASH, going for something different.

New tricks included KEO's new footdown spin, and even a 540 skid....which. was. ridiculous.

I definitely loved the cinematography.

I also give it an 8 out of 10, some shots were too long/shouldn't have been put in.

I'm not trying to 'hate' - Mash was enjoyable enough, I just wish some east coast/Midwest film makers would get off their asses already.


Grab a camera, and get shooting.
