WHALEATHON DOCUMENTARY

Not directly bike related. The highly anticipated Whaleathon documentary, a story that documents the FOAD Gang’s journey to run a marathon around a .04 roundabaout with a whale stature in the middle, is now live on the FOAD channel. Jackson put lots of work into this and even flew me out to film the event, so support his project by giving it a watch!

Introducing – THE LOCKUP

Our good friends at Slow Spin Society unveiled a brand new online bike gallery called The Lockup! If you remember the days of velospace where people from across the globe would upload their cool Fixed Gear builds for all to see, this project is meant to replace that void.

The instructions are simple, just visit this page and follow the instructions from there. Let’s flood the site with some cool FGFS builds!

84Kick – FIXIKA Georgy Porgy EDIT 2024

Not exactly Fixed Gear, but 84Kick just released this cool edit of Kai. If you don’t know Kai, he is a pioneer of the Fixed Freestyle movement in Japan and was featured in Bootleg Sessions 2. He’s riding a Blackmarket NSF freewheel mode in this video, but it’s still fun to watch him rip around on it and see an FGFS legend still having fun on bikes.
