Nothing beats riding bikes in San Francisco with a handful of your closest friends. If you ever come and visit The City, I highly suggest you pick up a bike while you’re here. It’s by far the best way to see everything that SF has to offer. If you don’t know your way around, reach out to one of us and we’d be glad to show you around. Filmed on January 14th 2024.
Wheel Talk’s very own Jake Lanich gives us an update on his MASH AC-3 Frameset (Black Scopes) fixed gear build. It had been 4 years since I last filmed a bike check with Jake and surprisingly enough, he’s still riding a lot of the same parts. There are interview moments peppered throughout this video which are my personal favorite parts of the edit. I added a full parts rundown as well as the gear I used to film this video below.
“We out here”. If you’ve ever been to San Francisco or joined us on a ride, then you’ve probably heard the term yelled by locals at the top of their lungs. It is the equivalent of a Bay Area bird call and is often said at the beginning of most conversations assuming both parties are outside. To quote The Mighty Ducks, and in the name of Coach Bombay, “Ducks fly together”. With daylight savings right around the corner, I’m looking forward to the Thursday Night group rides being back in effect in San Francisco. But until then, enjoy this new video featuring old footage from 2021.
With MAXFXD in town from Australia, we decided to take the Bart over to Oakland to ride bikes with our friends in the East Bay. It had basically been years since I last rode with everyone in Oakland, so it ended up feeling like a family reunion. At least that’s how it felt on my end.
The last video I posted on my YouTube channel was on Jan 26, 2022, so we’re just shy of two full years since I last uploaded anything. All that is about to change. I have a few videos already lined up and I’m going to start uploading more to this channel, so turn on notifications, like, subscribe, do whatever feels right and I’ll see you out there. ✌️
Any given Thursday. You know the drill, every Thursday we meet up in San Francisco to ride track bikes and do a quick jaunt around the city. Patrick Fixie King usually hosts the ride out and posts the route the day before. We’ve done this route in years past, but have never captured it on video, until now that is. Shout out to everyone who comes out to these and if you live in the area, you should definitely come ride with us sometime. The more the merrier. We’ll see you next time.
Fixed Gear Los Angeles. More specifically Broadway in the middle of DTLA. Guillermo Galindo & I did some laps up and down one of the more iconic streets in LA. We shot this right before I moved and I’m sure glad we did because it brings back some fond memories. Thanks for being here and joining us on this adventure through life.
Fixed Gear Bike check of the homie Bryan Dempler’s Low Track build. Bryan recently moved from San Francisco to LA. As we packed up the van we realized that there wasn’t going to be enough room to fit his bike. So I rode it to my house. Where it sat. For months… and months. Enough months that it collected some serious dust and feathers sitting in my bedroom. Recently I was able to get it back to him, but before I did I decided to shoot this bike check in Chinatown as a final sendoff.

Filmed in 2017, this was a video I made but never released. After taking a short hiatus from posting videos, I figured I’d share something from the unseen archives. All the follow shots in this were filmed with a glide cam & skateboard. Comment the first familiar face you see in this video. 🙂 Thanks for being here and I’ll see you on the next upload.
