The Brooklyn Machine Works Gangsta track was one of the first cross over track bikes that really could adapted for just about any terrain. I remember a few messengers in NYC racing cross on these bikes at Staten Island a few years back. One of those messengers was Austin Horse. Well, he’s still on it. In fact, he raced the Westside Invite in LA a few weeks back before heading over to Japan to race cross and another Red Bull event.

Before Austin embarked for Japan, Kyle at Tracko took some nice photos of this unique machine. Check out more photos here.

Well, I hope you all had a great New Year. I’m assuming most of you are back to work now and probably have some time to kill today during your lunch break so I invite you to check out a year in review. 2011 brought about a lot of traveling for me and like the increase in frequent flier miles, the site’s content continues to rack up. International, cross-continental and bi-coastal travels brought me to shops, events and in front of Beautiful Bicycles.

When Hern showed up to the SoCalTracklocross on his Fairdale Parser frame, I had to send Taj some photos of the bike in action. Yesterday, he posted up some of the photos and applied his highly entertaining copy. You’ve gotta check it out. See the post on the Fairdale Blog here.

This guy (I wish I knew his name) was living by the tortoise’s motto, “slow and steady” and while he didn’t win the race, I can only hope that I’ll be riding at his age. During the SoCalCross Tracklocross race, he was in the drops on this classic track bike. So sick!

And yes, the SoCal Cross will have multiple posts but I’ll do my best to mix them all in. There are just too many rad photos to dump them into one.

Saturday in Los Angeles brought forth the SoCalCross race and the first ever southern california Tracklocross race. While I spend this afternoon going through all the photos, I figured I’d share this one with you. Yes, it’s way out of focus but I really love how it came out. That’s Hern whipping up a pile of sand on his way through the pit on the course. Watching Austin Horse crush the shit out of the field was entertaining. It was a great way to conclude the afternoon for me.

More to come shortly!

Doug has some great pics from Tracklocross up on his Flickr. Make sure to head over and check them all out.

Looks like a muddy good time. Next year, don’t throw it on Easter weekend guys! Had to go spend time with family. Sucks I missed out. Was really looking forward to it!

Thanks to Dom for this video too!

Beastly! Seriously. I wanna ride that thing at Tracklocross!

You ready?

11 Days to prepare!
