Black Label Bike Club Oakland Bike Scavenger Hunt




Black Label Bike Club Oakland presents a Bike Scavenger Hunt in Wild, Wild, West Oakland. Small teams of contestants (3-5) will compete to find valuable and worthless items in the Urban Post-Industrial wasteland of West Oakland. Each team will need a guide with first-hand knowledge of local geography and indigenous customs, and a camera to document discoveries that cannot be carried. A panel of celebrity judges will score each teams collected treasures for difficulty, style, and stupidity. Prizes will be awarded for various achievements, including 1st team done and best cheating. Judges will be announced in advance so the bribery can start early.

After party with tall-bike jousting and music at ABCO. Bands/DJs TBA. Cheap drinks and food will be served.

This event is still in planning stages. We are looking for items for prizes, like gift certificates, shwag, bike gear, t-shirts stickers, art, whatever. We also need dj's and bands or other performers.

Also suggestions for search items, anything funny or weird that can be found in West Oakland is good. We're gonna let people use picture phones for some items, so size doesn't really matter, even things like cool buildings or funny signs.

More information coming as its available.

Lindsey Migdalski




I did a photoshoot with Lindsey a while ago. I got her to post up on a couple shots with her Serotta and while our focus wasn't bicycles, I'm in love with hers. I'll get through all these... one day. She's shot with Chrome, Specialized, and Cinelli. One hot momma.

International Love : Coppenhagen, Rio, Poland



I consider SF the epicenter of cycling and that's why I moved here 4 years ago to it. Since then, it's been an absolute thrill meeting people and participating in races. Lately, I've become really interested in world wide events, most notably KLIFGT2011 in Malaysia. One of the blogs I really enjoy following is Flwridr's and he has an influx of videos. Check out these videos and who knows, maybe one day, I'll be in one of them.
