Future Tense 5.11.2012
That’s today folks. This month will be pretty laid back since we went all out for last month’s event, but we will still be shredding as usual. Come hang!
Fixie Competition – Red Bull Ride & Style 2012 San Francisco
Good clean video, but it’s not a ‘fixie’ bro. Watch!
SF Sprints 3!
We are hyped to sponsor this event 3 years running! Check out the SF Sprints site for more.
Ride & Style 2012 – Tyler Johnson
Tyler took second at the Red Bull Ride & Style event and I am super stoked for him considering the intense level of competition that he faced. Tyler’s pedal feeble to 180 bar was, without a doubt, one of the most exciting tricks of the day. It is especially awesome if you know that it was the very first time that he had attempted the trick, let alone land it first try! Great work Tyler!
Dead Bike Drag
Two bikes one chain. What an awesome concept for a race! More details below. See you this weekend.
A team bike race with a twist. Two racers per team. One racers bike will be “dead”, I will remove the chain. Racers can employ a variety of techniques to get their partner and the “dead” bike through the race. Ride em on your handle bars, Ride em on your pegs. Madison slings, or just drag em from a rope. No tandems or cargo bikes please. Prizes from Mobius, Back Alley Bike Repair, Recycled Cycles, Dank Bags, and Monorail Espresso. All proceeds help fund the North American Cycle Courier Championships in Seattle in the summer of 2013.

April Future Tense!
Join us on Friday, April 13th as Tyler Johnson prepares for the Redbull Ride & Style competition (San Francisco, April 28th). Last year he took 3rd place overall, and is gunning for 1st place this year. A ramp and boxes have been provided by Red Bull to help send off Tyler in good form, and for use in many future events. We will kick off the night with a group ride from Cal Anderson to 65th and Ravenna, followed by a trick jam, sprints, and footdown. The event is free and everyone is welcome to participate and/or spectate. Thanks to all of the sponsors who made this happen in such short notice!
Head over to the Future Tense facebook and event page.
After party show at the Kraken Bar in U-District. Details here.

I am happy to see so many Seattle events popping up in the near future. This weekend, don’t miss the Ressurection alleycat in its 5th year!
This next event is happening in Savannah, GA. We sent some tees their way for prizes. Check the Good Grief event page.
The 420 Alleycat is another NACCC benefit race here in Seattle. These ones are planned out by the local messenger community and prove to be challenging yet fun.
Another cool thing coming through Sea Town is the Pedaler’ Fair. This looks to be the first year, so go support! Go Means Go is organizing it so it’s going to be good!

Fixed Days – Eurobike 2012
Traffic Distribution and Soundtrack Paris are putting together an event series during Eurobike 2012. This would be a good time to start making travel plans!
In line with the world’s biggest bicycle trade show EUROBIKE (yes, it is 6 times bigger than Interbike) we are happy to invite you aswell to one of europeans biggest event dedicated to the fixed wheel.
From the 29th of August until the 2nd of September the FIXED DAYS 2012 will offer various actions you could perfectly combine with your bike-interest by visiting the huge bicycle exhibition – or just sweeten your holiday at the biggest lake of europe submontane of the alps which is really more than worth to visit and ride.
2012 we enhanced our last years programm. Beside the spectacular 200m sprint race on the trade show’s area, and the Fixed Gear Freestyle contest (both powered by Red Bull) in the closeby village of Immenstaad we have this year much more to offer: a Hexagram race for those who are fast and persistent, the explosive Goldsprint that some attended already last year, a Movie Screening including a crew-clip contest and a lot of smaller happenings.
And last but not least we decided to invite our (former fixed and now) freewheelers aswell and so we will have a big Polo-Tournament during the days.In combination with taking a look onto all the exhibited upcoming bikes, latest parts and its framework programm (like the dirt-MTB contest or the famous Lakejump) at EUROBIKE the FIXED DAYS 2012 event is a must and a nice break from office for every bike lover.
Step to each section to experience more about the single events of the FIXED DAYS 2012 and don’t forget to register.
If you have any questions regarding accomodation, contest-rules or whatever – hit us an email to contact@fixed-days.com
Please not that the FIXED DAYS 2012 is an unommercial event, nobody is making any profit out of it – it is all happening “just” for the love of the fixed ride. Thanks to all involved crews that help to organise each single-event.
See you at the Lake!

Hip Happenings in Seattle this Weekend
There are a lot of exciting things happening this week in the Emerald City.
FRIDAY: First up us our monthly fixed gear event Future Tense is on Friday. Over the past year it has steadily become more of a freestyle bike hang out session and less of a competition series. This month we are sharing the night with two other big happenings on Capitol Hill, the second being the launch party and alleycat to benefit the 2013 North American Cycle Courier Championships in Seattle that we here at ZLOG have been helping with alongside a rag-tag bunch of Seattle’s finest bike messengers. Also on Friday, the new Seattle skate shop Alive and Well will be hosing a grand opening party at HG Lodge featuring Dom Kennedy, be sure to hit that up if can.
Saturday: The Seattle Bike Expo is happening, although I wasn’t able to find a flier, there is a facebook event posted here with all of the info. Go Means Go will be hosting the after party in Freemont later that night, which should be a blast.
