Am 09. März 2012 findet St. Paulopoly statt, dass unter neuer Führung und nun unter dem Namen Pankt Saulopoly läuft. Sankt Paulopoly is dead, long live Pankt Saulopoly! Ein ganzes Wochenende ”bike worship” und “brain damage”. Die Jungs die sich das ausgedacht haben waren auch vor Kurzem in LA um dort ihrem Fixed Gear Bike Wahn zu frönen. Was sie dort konkret gemacht haben, lest Ihr hier:
A group of bicycle aficionados from Hamburg St. Pauli made their way to break-in the city of Los Angeles. During 12 days the group scattered the city in all cardinal directions. They cruised through the barrios of East LA, blazed to the beaches of Venice and ascended the Hollywood Hills. They worked as volunteers at the Midnight Mission on skid row to bring attention to the 15,000 homeless people, who are the result of gentrification in LA.
They discovered a velodrome in the valley and self-tested their consciousness at the LA Gun Club. During the trip they met with a great variety of local riders. Although the bike scene in the capital of cars is relatively small, their skills are top notch.In the end the group attempted to reconquer the ecological desert of Los Angeles in order to survive evolutionary pressures, such as distances and traffic.
