After watching this video there is not much more to say except this 17 year old kid Chase LaRue is truly gifted. Steven Jensen posted this video up saying that after only a week Chase has been able to throw truckdrivers with ease. That is incredible just in itself because there is not many people that can throws trucks as it is including pros. I really hope Chase keeps on riding because it this pace he is going to be better than any rider out there.
Omar Sebai and Johnathan Ball have been working hard on this Young Guns Fixed Freestyle video and I can not tell you how excited I am to see this when it is finished. Rumor has it that this will be released in about a month or so. There is going to be so much good young talent all throughout this video. So in the mean time #SMC and get ready for YOUNG GUNS.
Here is a short clip of Edgar doing some training over at THE WORKSHOP LB bike shop on his fresh built UNKNOWN LV2 track bike. He is not only the newest, but the first member to the UNKNOWN BIKE CO. fast bike team. Not only did Edgar join up with UNKNOWN BIKE CO. but he has also joined forces with THE WORKSHOP LB. I expect some big things in the near future for Willo. Right now he is focusing hard on racing on the velodrome but training vigorously for the upcoming Lord of Griffith race on September 2nd. To Edgar he is still a “UNKNOWN” just like the bike he rides and until he keeps winning I can promise you that he won’t stop until he is number one. This guy is a beast and you can find him training everyday over at THE WORKSHOP LB pushing a 49/14 ratio like it ain’t no thang !! #YOUKNOWWAZGOOD !!
So this Sunday August 19th. there will be a “Kidical Mass” ride leaving from Los Cerritos Park in Long Beach, Ca. at at 1:00 pm. This bike ride is mainly for little kids and families to come out and ride together in a safe friendly environment while learning about bikes and bike safety. This ride was first brought to my attention by GRAHAM BADEN(HEAD MECHANIC AT THE WORKSHOP LB). Graham is also a parent so he tries to get involved in events that promote kids to ride bikes. This Sunday you can find Graham and myself out at this event working on bikes and handing out free helmets to kids, all compliments of THE WORKSHOP and PRO-TEC HELMETS.
When you come out this Sunday please remember the theme is to decorate your bikes ! Kids and adults of all ages are welcome to attend this event. The ride will leave promptly at 1:00 pm from Los Cerritos Park led by Olympic Cyclist Tony Cruz. The route is about 2.5 miles and will end at Summerset Park for a BBQ. If you have questions please call (562)-595-0081 or email info@bixbyknollsinfo.com
WHAT IS KIDICAL MASS?
Kidical Mass is a legal, safe and FUN bike ride for kids, kids at heart, and their families. The first ride was held in April 2008 in Eugene, Oregon and has now spread to over a dozen communities throughout North America and beyond. The rides are meant to be family friendly bike rides through a community.
Kidical Mass Bixby Knolls will host rides that connect the community to the businesses in Bixby Knolls. Our goal is to show people how easy it is to get around in Bixby Knolls by bike and support local business.
All types of bikes, trailers, trail-a-bikes, Xtracycles, longtails, bakfiets, Long Johns, tandems, folders, trikes, and whatever rolls are welcome! We celebrate the fact that Kids are Traffic Too and aim for family fun on vehicles that don’t hurt the future! It’s just another excuse to pedal around town with your family.

904 Fixed has set a goal to raise a total of $1000 before the ride, supporting the fight against MS. I am reaching out to you to help us reach that goal, either by making a donation on your companies behalf, or by helping spread the word to help us promote to gather the $1000.
Thank you for your time and I hope you can help in my goal to raise $1000 in the fight against MS.” _904 FIXED
So this past Saturday was a blast !! I had so much fun out there with everybody that came out to the event. I remember showing up to the Staples Center to see hundreds of riders having fun and ready for a fun filled day of riding. I will be making a video of this event so be prepared for that. I want to thank all my cameramen that came out to help film this event because without all of your help I would not have been able to do this to the scale I wanted to. I want to encourage anyone who was at this event to email me their photos and or video clips to mashafix@gmail.com along with their information so I may credit you for your work if it is used. I also want to thank all of the Sponsors that helped make this day happen. My intent was to make this day dedicated to all the kids out there that support Mashafix.com and everything I do. Without all of you out there showing your support for the blog this past year I do not think I could have kept it going so I thank all of my fans out there. I plan on throwing more and more events so be prepared for that because it is all about giving back to the cycling community in which I love so much. So stay tuned to Mashafix.com for more updates and photos ! #YOUKNOWWAZGOOD
Young Alberto Anguiano sent over his summer edit for 2012 to me via facebook and boy let me tell you ….. this kid is one bad motha “shut yo mouth!” hahahaha ! I can not describe to you how far this kid has ome along since I last seen him ride in person. I am really really really surprised that his riding has not picked him up a sponsorship of some kind yet but I am convinced with an edit like this he can definitely pick up one if not a few. I know he needs another set of bars for sure after watching them snap in this edit. Alberto has got some real talent and shows he has a good all around style. I think the 1:17mark was just to clean not to point out again because not only is it hard to do a truck driver on a fixed but doing it flat to flat and soooo clean is just remarkable ! trucks are seriously one of my favorite tricks to watch. I remember trying to get Josh Boothby on film monthes ago after the Bunny Hops contest in San Diego to do a flat to flat truck driver. Josh is known for his backflips not but I have yet to see him truck. So mad props to Alberto and his riding !!! I know for sure I can not wait to see him ride this Saturday at my EVENT ! PS …. SOMEONE PLEASE SPONSOR THIS KID HE DESERVES IT !!!!!!!!
This July edit from 14 year old Tyler Nakamoto is incredible !!!! This kid has progressed so much so fast. He has developed a clean style where you can tell he has full control of his bike at all times. He definitely saved the bangers for the end going from a truck driver, 11 stair bar spin, to a finale of a roof drop bar to flat !! So insane ! I think it’s the coffee I’m drinking or the fact that I am so excited to see more from young Tyler that I am using so many exclamation points!!!!! #YOUKNOWWAZGOOD
These young kids are straight up killing it right now and taking advantage of ever minute they have to ride. Between Omar, Gabe, Michael, and Packy you got a shit ton of edits coming non stop of footage taken at almost every kind of street spot or skate park. Keep up the good work guys !
