    Track bikes with Style

    “Warning Extreme Sarcasm”

    So it seems these days that everybody and their mother is hoping on a fixie, and then being promptly thrown off when they try and leave their leg down and coast. It seems that all you need to claim OG status is to have ridden your sweet new Tommaso Augusta. Now, the previous sentence may lead readers to believe we're not down with the recent surge in popularity and riders, but we're not haters, we just want to hand out some tips for all the noobs so you can ride with confidence. First remember Flashier Is Better. Custom paint jobs, ridiculously expensive wheels (preferably with custom paint jobs. see pic), and Diamond encrusted handlebars are all in. Big time.


    Second arrogance is key. If Roadies or other Fixie riders check you out, flash them a condescending look at their bike and look away, it's what they're gonna do to you. Lastly, forget what you think you know about Track bikes being built for speed, going fast and being able to stop are overrated and pase. Seriously what fun is fast? Flatland is the wave of the future. You aren't a fixie rider until you can do a backwards circle with one foot and no hands into a straight back flip.

    So armed with these new rules of the street fixie culture, go forth and be cool. Cause thats what it’s all about, right? right?.... OK so that was all a bit sarcastic, sorry. Seriously though, just ride fast, ride safe, give props, and have fun.

    Bob Haro: The Man, The Myth, The Legend.

    To celebrate BMX's move into the 2008 Summer Olympic Games, Nike 6.0 Celebrated in Bejing last week with The Lightening Bolts Art Show and BMX exhibition.


    Nike honored Bob Haro, recreating his famous number plate as an artists canvas.

    Props to Nike for honoring a bike legend such a Bob Haro.

    To give you an idea of how much this guy dominates check out this rare footage.
    I especially like the ET tease... Enjoy.

    The most popular Youtube video ever?

    With 31 million views in less than a year, Battle at Kruger is quickly approaching the annals of Youtube history.

    Warning: this video contains graphic material, as it is a real life cage match (w/out the cage) featuring Lions, Buffalo, and Crocodiles.

    Let's Put Our Hands Together for Our Youtube Talent Scout as he Graduates from Dartmouth, Yes Dartmouth



    Judging from the picture you might think Horatio Hunt Bradley III (Hap) was a Yale boy. Oh contraire, young Hap obviously got into Yale and is, thus far, the only "Skulls" member not to have attended the University, but as he notes, “the bureaucracy and politicking at Yale starts with the faculty and trickles down to the student population – I have no need, or time, for my education to be adulterated by angst ridden Neoconservatives who harbor ill will towards society since being rejected by Harvard.”(Hap got into Harvard too)

    We at Randall Scott don’t necessarily “know what that means”, but that’s ok because Hap always takes the time to explain things to us in laymen’s terms. For instance, the other day we were at Long John Silver’s and Jon, Hap’s junior sibling, asked,

    “Hap, what’s an oxymoron?”

    Hap just winked at me and replied, “I think the Jumbo Shrimp is great here.”

    That clever sun of a gun.

    You might be asking, “How did Randall Scott land a Youtube Scout from the Ivy League - especially one with so many prospects?”

    Well, it wasn’t easy. We did have an inherent advantage in the fact that his aforementioned younger brother works for us, and their love is often equated to that of Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling in The Notebook.


    Scene from the notebook



    Hap resisted for a while, but after a few beers and a few episodes of My So Called Life, Jon could have convinced him to grow a fashion beard and wear cowboy boots everywhere.

    Hap has been humming Pomp and Circumstance for a few weeks now and going through the LL Bean catalog circling the top 15 things he wants for graduation. This signals the end of an era, as once him and his elegant gate walk down that Isle and shake the powerful hand of the Dean, Hap’s tenure with Randall Scott will come to a close.

    We’d like to congratulate you on your accomplishments Hap, and let you know that, while you may be leaving us, your indomitable spirit with be with us for at least another week or two.

    We’ll leave you Hap’s latest, and perhaps last, Youtube contribution to the RS blog
