TRAFIK presents The Official Trailer for To Live & Ride In L.A. (toliveandrideinla.com)

Over a year in the making, To Live & Ride In L.A. is the first feature-length film about L.A.’s underground fixed-gear culture. Directed by David Rowe (Fast Friday), the documentary explores a side of Los Angeles few outsiders have ever seen.

To Live & Ride In L.A. features talented local riders tearing up the streets with first-time visitor Keo Curry (Fast Friday, Macaframa), one of the living legends of the sport. From races through rush-hour traffic to midnight loft parties, To Live & Ride In L.A. is a fast-paced trip through the busy streets and back-alleys of one of the world’s largest cities.

The second feature film from David Rowe, To Live & Ride In L.A. will challenge viewers’ perceptions of a city better known for its paparazzi, fake breasts, and traffic jams.

The soundtrack for To Live & Ride in L.A. highlights top artists from record labels such as Dangerbird Records(dangerbirdrecords.com), Dim Mak Records, Anticon, SWTBRDS, and I Heart Comix and includes music by Silversun Pickups, Hot Hot Heat, Bad Veins, The Willowz, Minus The Bear, Bambu, DaVinci, Crown City Rockers, Datarock, Kid Infinity, Sea Wolf, From Monument To Masses, Darker My Love... and more!

TRAFIK is a group of creatives who love biking the streets of L.A. and the world. From Japan to Australia, Europe to South America, urban fixed-gear cycling has become a symbol of a new generation that isn't afraid to bomb hills, split lanes, and defy norms.

TRAFIK is Global Fixed Gear Culture.

    "Do they really ride the most dangerous streets in America, or do they simply make regular streets dangerous by riding like complete idiots?"

    Don't blame me, it was the BSNYC.

    Blame me. I've never been in agreement more with BSNYC: "First, it made me Angry; then, I found it Comical; and now I only feel Sadness. Yes, the sight of somebody riding straight into an intersection in the absence of anything real to rebel against is imbued with pathos--even a suicide bomber believes in something. "

    So Bikesnobbed. You guys should check out the Fort Myers Recumbent Underground trailer for some truly fresh ideas.

    And as for the most dangerous streets in America- try Miami.

    Looking very good so far, lets see the rest.
    I have to agree though, we could do without people ploughing through red lights and turning themselves into chunks of flying death.
