The Godfather of FGFS, Keo. Los Angeles showed Keo a lot of love during filming of TL&R (which drops at 12am!!!), and we hope it left a lasting impression on him. It was a joy to have the Don of trickery, in our midst. Super down to earth and a fucking good time, is the kind of guy Keo Curry is.

LA by Keo:
“L.A. was a trip. The bike community is as large as the city itself, which is awesome, but commuting on a bicycle is impractical for most people. Good news is the Fixed Gear community does it eveyday. As far as traffic goes, the drivers proved much more aware of cyclists than I thought. George ran every light he could… Mercedes have good brakes!

The L.A. River is a spot I want to ride again for sure. It inspired me to get down, but we only spent an afternoon there. Next time.

During this film I made some true friends 4 life: Kuz, George, Fram, James, Joey, Fish, Beaves… BRIMSTONE!”

-Keo

Another Sneak Peek from TL&R. This is one of those scenes only available on the DVD (6/21/11). Buy it here!!! The DVD is stacked with 40 minutes of Bonus Features, this is just one of them.

This is an extended version of a scene from the film where Keo Curry and the Brimstone Riddaz check out one of LA’s well know spots, the beautiful LA River. Kuzberg goes in for a closer inspection. lol.

We are getting so close to the release. Don’t forget you can catch another sneak peek this Sunday at the Lord of Griffith lll afterparty! Be there.

From the Westside of LA, riding out of LAB, these OG heads were a handful during filming, especially Charlie..who can forget this classic move? CRASH!
Never a dull moment, these guys were super fun to work with and always surprised us with what they can throw down on a bike.

George, Efrem and Charlie were friends before we started the movie, then with Keo in the mix, shit was Craze. These guys showed us what the Venice life is like; riding all day in the sun, locals only spots, smoking hella weed. It’s cool that Venice was the birthplace of skateboarding, and now is really a center point of Fix Gear FreeStyle. On any given day you can find FGFS riders practicing next to the skaters down at Venice Beach. This really is the place to “Think Global, and Ride Local.”

The LAB boys represented the West side in “To Live & Ride in L.A.” and were the best tour guides for Keo during his trip to LA. It was a summer none of us will forget. See it on 6/21/20!!!
