FixedFest Jakarta
Back in Shanghai after a fantastic week in Jakarta competing in the FixedFest. The people from Rocket and all the locals helping out created a fantastic event, over 500 participants only in the alley cat is pretty mind blowing for a scene only 15 month old. I have never seen more rare and nice bicycles in one place before. Rocket is not a bicycle shop, its a bike porn museum, make sure to take some time of next time you visit Jakarta and go to all the bicycle shops.
I must have forgot to pay respect to the inner tube gods because I got 2 flats during the alley cat, got another flat during the estafete race together with Gypsy from Brisbane and local rider Banyu Putra Tanzil. We did however manage to go to the next round and finished up 3rd in the final, yeah!
The next event was a mini race in traffic around the competition area, this event went really well and I finished 2nd in the final and won a brand new pearl white MASI frame and a hand full of cash or dingdongs as Gypsy refers to the local currency.
