Here's another video from RatsKL. Their other edits are always popular and this one will be no different. It's shot really well and there's nothing better than riding your track bike around with friends at night. Beautiful!

As with any competition, the street riding before and after is usually the most fun. No one's stressing out or trying to hurt themselves, they're just out having a blast. Check out Sam's video from last week's All City Championships street riding featuring Antonyo, Taylor, Torey and Rick. Taylor slammed that wall! Nicely done.
Congo is one of the smoothest and stylish riders out there. Hell, just look at that shirt! But don't let that distract you from this video Matt Spencer put together for Wolf Drawn. There's some real bangers in there. Full cab bar was fresh and clean. "700c don't limit me". Keep it up Congo!
Matt Rice put together a quick little edit showcasing the 2010 Velo City events at Hellyer ( @Hellyer ). Nicely done and am I the only one that thinks freestyle comps at velodromes are kinda rad? Would be great if the kids tricking were racing as well.
LA might just have the strongest (and largest for that matter) fixed freestyle scene. Seriously, every time I go out there, I'm blown away at how many kids are riding. Very impressive. For their Summer 2010 video, Palm Cycles and Smashed up Sundays compiled this little web edit. Oh and yeah, Rob Dyrdek is in the beginning. Is there a Fantasy Factory session in the future?
I think it's amazing that LA has so many fixed gear riders that they could thrown a U19 alleycat. What a novel concept race! Ambushe and Ride After Dark were there to catch the action! Nicely done fellas!
There's a lot to be said about simplicity. Both in design and in product presentation. No music, no fancy filters, just showing the product. Mission Workshop's newest video shows the Monty Messenger Bag in action. It just went live on the site, so head over and check out the other videos they posted as well.
Or, if you're lazy, you can check out more below.

Colby's one of the chillest people you'll ever meet (if you can wade through all the fans demanding autographs). Kris from Locked Cog's also a pretty chill guy. When you put the two Sac-town riders together, you get a very laid back 5-minutes. Watch this video kids and listen up to Colby!
Holy lord. These are the cleanest 540 cabs I've seen on a fixed gear. Nasty is straight killing the cab-tricks. Easily his best setup and execution to date. Keep ripping Teppei!
I saw a trailer for this a while back but the quality was so low and you couldn't embed the code so I waited. Now, months later, the official trailer is on Youtube. I have no idea what they're saying but the forthcoming Hugo Koblet - Pédaleur de Charme film looks intense. The production quality is great too. I just love modern films based on cyclists from the old days.
Ok, now I'm really pissed I didn't get to go to the All City Championship Weekend. Vincent Shim's edit is the first edit to show some of the madness that went down. Boothby's truckdriver, Taylor's 540 to pant shit and Antonyo's footplants. Epicly fun times!
Apologies for getting this up so late but it's partially Rapha's fault for that. After a kick-ass time at their event and many Stellas, I'm a bit hungover this morning! D'Acciaio (Of Steel), is their final film with RSA Films and is now live on their homepage. Here's the PR:
As with the others, this film will only be available on the Rapha homepage for 24 hours. With Dario Pegoretti as the subject, this film is a unique and concise exploration of a man that has continually been a subject within the cycling community. Compared to the narrative structure of the previous two films this one is more of a documentary take on this famous framebuilder from Italy. There are some great humorous moments that delve into the tortured and charismatic personality of Pegoretti.
Jeremy and everyone, it was great meeting you finally! You guys rule.
Them Cali boys bring the rukkus. Wiley Santos even rips on a razr scooter! Who'da known? Killer edit from the constantly-injured Matt Spencer. Heal up quick man! Keep on top of Spencer's daily happenings here, at Wolf Drawn.
Pure Norwegian Hill Bombing on Metal. Or something like that. Alf sent me over FTT's latest edit, featuring some of Oslo's best track bike riders. Pretty killer. I missed out on posting FTT's first edit, so I've linked it below.
This is amazing. FBM's I Love My Bicycle is now online for your viewing pleasure. It's a long one, so maybe you'll wanna come back to this on a rainy day or tonight with a 6-pack.
I wonder how many people were on track bikes at this event? Especially when compared to the current steed of choice at the CMWCs. Great find Jason!
Damn. Steven and Alex Royal slaying the skatepark in Seattle. Disaster bars are so rad on a fixed gear. Don't miss that legit 540 cab either!
Here's the first edit from the All City Championships trick jam. So good! Sam, you did a great job on this one! All the riders were going off and hyped as hell. Bummed I missed it!
Woah. What an awesome race promo video. Complete with product logo tracking and a very Macaframa-esque song choice. Nice one guys! Check out more info at Fixed Bergamo!
