Chapter One Successful!!!

Our first event was pretty successful! A round of applause to Manny for putting on such a great time!

Though the rain kept some inside, those brave enough to withstand a little water had an overall good time. A little confusion with the end checkpoint but everyone made out with something nice in hand. The Trick Comp was insane!

Here's a few pictures courtesy of Daniel Porter of "Race to Fat Camp".


A look at all our prizes (provided by our great sponsors).
After the drag race, riders recieved their "mannyfests". Here, three riders coordinate their route.
San Jose local Bennett came out! A little rain is ok right?
Expect many more events to come! The next one is right around the corner! Keep an eye out!

Prize Update!

Sorry for the lack of updates! We've all been pretty busy with the our event TOMORROW!!!!

Here's a quick iphone pic I snapped of Christian Torres on our way to pick up some prizes!

And here they are!!!! All the prizes donated from our amazing sponsors! Thanks everyone!


We have a 65% chance of rain tomorrow but we'll see how conditions are. A little rain won't stop us and neither should it stop you! If the rain is too much, we'll postpone the event till the following Sunday. But until then, check here for updates. We'll post tomorrow morning letting everyone know if our race /trick comp will still be taking place. See everyone out there!

Track Novel Presents: Chapter 1

So here it is...our first official event!


Our first event "Race to Fat Camp" is brought to you by Track Novel member Manny Balalio! The meeting is going to be at Sonic's in Hayward CA, and registration will be at 12:00. The race starts at 1:00.

Race: Starts at 1 o'clock! This is a short one (easy peezy). A destination will be given at the start with 5 minutes to choose a route. Sprint to the destination, then arrive to find your manifest. Complete the required checkpoints then sprint to the finish at UC Mini Park off of Industrial Pkwy W. (Strattford Rd. and Canterbury Ln.). If anyone needs help finding the finish, email me at StreetMonkey07@aol.com.

Trick Comp: Our emphasis for this event is our trick comp. At the finish, there will be a park with a small skatepark where the contest will take place.

BBQ! Prizes are soon to be posted! C'mon out and Ride!

Cool Concepts from Specialized

Here's a couple bikes that were never released into production...shame!


The next one is their time-trial Tandem. Very pretty no? Pretty aero if you ask me. I pre-ordered mine...jk
