Off Track Ep. 27 – TOM MOSHER

In today’s episode we got the honor to speak with one of the founding fathers of our sport, Tom Mosher! I was watching Tom’s bike checks, edits, and tutorials while I was just a wee fixie lad in high school 12+ years ago, so it was an absolute pleasure to have him in our virtual studio. We had so much to talk about and seemed to hardly scratch the surface, so I’d encourage you to check out the Patreon bonus episode to check out the extended discussion. Enjoy!

Fixated Comp 2 Schedule

Fixated has released a schedule for their looming August FGFS competition that’s coming up quick. Not only will they be throwing their FGFS comp again, but there will be a Trick Track division going down too! Gearing up to be a hell of a good time with the Euro scene!

Along with the schedule, I’d like to announce that tickets for our Netherlands trip are BOOKED BABY. Not spoiling who’s going yet, but we’ve got a good crew heading out to Europe for the 2nd Fixated comp. See you there!

If you’re going and competing, make sure to register here!

On Friday, I’m premiering my newest edit that has been in the works for about a year and a half titled “Waning“.

For now, mark your calendars for May 10th at 9:45AM Pacific Standard Time on the SMC Youtube channel. See you there!

Jacob Ruff – Putting The Sleeper To Rest

The Ruff Sleeper is no more. Ruff Bike Co. head honcho Jacob Ruff gives us a rundown on his final Sleeper build. Although he’s currently on a different, new bike (new name is set, but confidential), it’s still worth giving the rundown on his previous build cause it was a good one. Full gallery, rundown, and words from Jacob after the jump!
