This guy. Another Superstar Blogger from LA, shop owner and all round fun dude. Tracko, the bearded Mt. Goat. You haven’t lived to you have had to chase this guy up and around Griffith Park. You also should go support his new shop “Golden Saddle Cyclery“. One our new favorite hangout spots in Los Angeles and one stop shop for all things bike related.

“My favorite spot to ride in L.A. is definitely Griffith Park. Not many people have a mountain to climb in their backyard. People don’t realize that L.A. has hills. All cities are the same…things only change when you get into the mountains.

Working at a bike shop in Los Angeles, I’ve been able to see the evolution of fixed gear in Southern California. If you want to know how I really feel about it, read my blog.”
