Yes, we know the cycling scene is a trend now. Sheesh I just rode 18 miles on Friday night through Long Beach with Critical Mass! It wasn’t an easy task considering I haven’t touched my bike, let alone done some form of exercise in 2-3 weeks.

The BMX scene in Chicago tends to get overlooked since the fixie scene is stronger.  The BMX following has had its share of ups & downs, but it’s making a strong comeback.  Think Rad BMX days that has an 80’s influence to it.  The Cool Kids video “Black Mags” is a great example of 80’s influence BMX.

NIECEE’s TAKE AWAYS:

• Go beyond your borders. Sometimes we get stuck inside our daily little box we forget that there’s a whole other side to this world beside the “box.” You don’t necessarily have to travel to these places to experience them.  With a little research and interactive websites it’s like you’re there!
