Let me preface this post by saying that I haven’t been to an out of town alleycat in a long time. With all the radness happening this past weekend at the All City Championship, the main event was sure to deliver. Did it? Being Minneapolis, of course! Most of my day was spent at the start and finish, shooting portraits, documenting the racers and their bikes before heading out to the start.

A large, grassy hill stood between the racers and their rides, causing a mad dash in the beginning. After about 32 miles, everyone piled back into the parking lot at One on One and Handsome Cycles for the after party. The night moved on, as the party grew and before we knew it, we were back at a lake swimming at 2am.

Head over to Bike Jerks for the full standings from the event.

Minneapolis, you rule! Check out some portraits, bikes and other random photos from the event in the Gallery!
