That girl in white at the front absolutely buried herself during the final race, she spent about 5 laps on the front of our chasing group totally going for it and trying to break away before blowing up a couple of laps from the finish and got left for dead I think. She was very strong to have kept it up for so long but that was a bad move tactically.

That's ok man @853Superfly we're a track team consisting of 7 male riders and a female rider but we've started a community outside of the forum. We all ride track bikes on the road so have made a few internal rivals, I don't know why, we're all nice guys and we mean business but for some reason we've been labeled a few times as hipster skidders, you know the same insults over and over.

We're working with a lot of brands atm making videos for adverts etc and quickly making a name for ourselves in the industry and we like to put back into the community by organising events and giving away prizes for comps and races. We have a checkpoint race next Friday your all welcome.

Yeah that Lina, I managed to get endless blurry photos

To the group I was leading home.
Apologies for losing you/ you losing me.
Guessing you all returned safe - @timbre @B0N0R @IR

everyone lost everyone but yeah we got back, lost bonor I think.

Mucho fun evening

sweet.
yeah @B0N0R was with me and then headed to brixton to find breddahs

:) Lina=faster than the autofocus i had.

Another random from quali's the exit of corner 4 this pair appeared to be riding in cahoots and chatting, rider No 2 had to adjust shoe straps rider 52 eased off and paced, then the pair of them zoomed off down the straight, tactical teaming up perhaps.

I only judge people on the quality of their hashtags. What's your crew working with?

We all good, mashed home pretty hard!

Appoline guillemin- French rider currently living in London, she trains with us @853Superfly

@I_am_Hingis we have been running social rides from the oakleys in residence store every Saturday through the summer, become great mates with Alec Briggs of back to back who was nailing the front of the pack in the final race up until the last 5 laps or so, he went too hard too soon I think, such a shame. We film for bricklane bikes, Levi's and just been sponsored by le coq sportif and caravan coffee. Onwards and upwards though man lots in store for us in the future. Next red hook crit in Barcelona should be huge!

Which one...... 2 or 52 ...... i promise no marriage proposals to follow, Mrs 853 would kill me (58 was my fave by the sheer amount of times i got her photo)

But yes they where not talking in english and appeared to be friendly on track.
The girls/ladies scared me :) i doubt i could keep up with them.

52 pink aventon @853Superfly think she placed 25th one spot in front of Lina

What didn't help your cause was the very first thing posted about you guys was a shit video of people riding like dicks, skidding through pedestrians etc, which has been done and ridiculed a millions times over by now. See: Ohana Fixed for a recent example. That and being all "we're a professional track bike riding team" rather than a group of mates who like to cycle together. The "teams" that get respect are those that just focus on riding their bikes and winning things.
If you're going to the next one in Barcelona it might be worth practicing your cornering and group riding.

wow, you must shit sprockets. ;)

I rode into a tree in Burgess Park

I need to join this team!

Yeah that does look like me haha. Thanks for the pic!

Everyone fell off last night... I have a massive bruise on my leg, won't be entering the red hook crit soon, need to practise not crashing into things.

Me & @IR battered it back to Oval, lotta fun that

@I_am_Hingis we can create a new fixie cool kid semi pro team.

I have a semi right now!

Red Hook Crit posted a short but sweet clip from a handlebar mounted camera on their Instagram, looks so much more intense from that perspective.
