I remember some videos floating around pre-mash around 2003 maybe on the Velo shop website, maybe ReLoad, I'm not sure. riding backwards and down stairs... but I think Mash and their presentation really did it. Gunna rewatch Gabes part right now! I also remember filming that tacoma video with Tyler and being super bummed when he put Circa Survive ontop of it, ha!Taylorhttp://sizemorebicycle.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395377012440495975.post-82588824221692925442012-09-23T14:41:35.513-07:002012-09-23T14:41:35.513-07:00Although it is great where a sport of any kind can...Although it is great where a sport of any kind can go. It is the folks who put in time and face that are responsible. I'll say Ditto- Ritchy Ditta and a sick bunch of fools who put forth day after day a lifestyle that was more than a Hipster Ethos. It was a subculture- a real way of life that was respectable at a time. There was a time when you rode down the street and knew the name of an individual and where they were by the bike they rode. That gem they scored, either from a homie or a rare swap that was only known by those- in the know. Mash and etc. are just folks co-opting a trend, Mike and Gabe stole somthing that wasnt theirs and have used it to incorporate a beautiful thing. Many have followed, and thats cool... But the real is real. Doesn't matter what frames, what helmet or sneakers you are sponsored by. The fact is, it was always about the streets, about being sidewise in a way( a punk rock mindset)- faster than and quicker than your typical trend. Cycling is and will always be the most dynamic sport on earth. But a real street credible Trackbike rider- an individual that rides for the soul of it- still lies in a chosen few! To those- Cheers.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395377012440495975.post-14747234573252625142012-09-23T11:06:08.798-07:002012-09-23T11:06:08.798-07:00Jeremy from Chi, 2004, 1 handed wheelies down the ...Jeremy from Chi, 2004, 1 handed wheelies down the block<br /><br />that and all the ol' backwards circles on standby started it for me<br /><br />-DontcoastAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395377012440495975.post-89122062527844149972012-09-22T21:30:59.131-07:002012-09-22T21:30:59.131-07:00Mad memories man!

Evel tried to do these tricks on a standard track bike (artistic cycling bikes are purpose built). The no handed wheelie was the first step in learning these tricks. He used to practice this trick inside the fountain in Washington square park. I would watch him practice when I was a messenger at the time. I had just started riding fixed gear for work (around 1994). I started practicing the no handed wheelie and added the wheel grab around 1996. I moved to s.f. in '96, everyone thought I was crazy for riding brakeless in the city. I would do a no handed wheelie to show them my skill and converted a lot of people to fix gears. messenger world championships, where we would all get together and have trick sessions is where most of the tricks I did in my part come from. I came up with a lot more tricks but forgot most of them during filming of MASH. All of this is on regular track bikes, made for going fast...tricks where something we did in between doing messenger work.

I always lump them in with Bootleg Sessions. I had done loads of Alley Cat races in SF as a courier, and we always played with backwards figure 8s and wheelies on our track bikes while standing by, but Fast Friday and Future Tense were big time game changers in terms of seeing people bring BMX influenced tricks to the table.<br /><br />I started riding fixed in 1996, and never imagined it would be like this in 2012.Daoodnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395377012440495975.post-68649752556965854912012-09-21T14:02:00.946-07:002012-09-21T14:02:00.946-07:00such a good read, thanks for this Torey.such a good read, thanks for this Torey.hazenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17980242096632592341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395377012440495975.post-53556860295893837512012-09-21T11:56:18.579-07:002012-09-21T11:56:18.579-07:00bit of a tear jerker this...bit of a tear jerker this...Great White Northhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15716098295569166023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4395377012440495975.post-63570354784444815942012-09-21T08:05:30.924-07:002012-09-21T08:05:30.924-07:00Solid post.
