oakland bicycle film festival 2009
yesterday was a big day.
the first time the bicycle film festival came to oakland and alameda!
yay for the east bay!
anyways it was to be a badass alleycat race
and badass bike polo tournament at san antonio park in east oakland.
and then a 6 mile group ride to alameda for the films.
events and venues not for the faint of heart.
the race was a bit of a hunt at unmanned checkpoints and a delivery.
the courts were old and worn, covered in leaves and super treacherous.
the group ride from east oakland to alameda was like a bicycle sideshow;
it helped that we had 15 scraper bikes scraping with us. dope.
the racers at the start.
team janky. oakland!
the theatre.
more if you click 'em.
you'll find a snap of brendt barbur, the founder of the festival, and james, the man behind bringing the festival to oakland. good fellas.

what exactly are we seeking?
in one quiet moment in my one small spot on this earth,
i consider the beauty of nature and the wonder of life,
and reconsider the motivation behind all things.
in the beauty of movement and grace, in the martial arts,
we find ourselves trained in destructive, even deadly technique.
how and when did we get to this place in our minds,
in our bodies and memory of bone and flesh and joints and muscle?
was there a time when we resigned ourselves to war?
are we not seekers of peace?
