RIDING THE LONG WHITE CLOUD: A BIKE+SKATE FILM

24.01.10

Friendly Fire Productions is releasing a film titled ‘Riding The Long White Cloud’, a story centered on skating and bicycling. It’s is a collaboration between Color Magazine and Fuel TV and follows a group of pro skaters on a bike tour of New Zealand.

The story line is intriguing because last summer was the first year I found myself not mountain biking in a really long time. Never got out once. Living in Denver made it hard to get out on dirt…so I picked up a sweet Bianchi steel cross bike and started riding to various metro skateparks. It was awesome and got me thinking of other bike/skate trips…

This summer I hope to see how many parks can be ridden to in one day. Thinking 7 is definitely possible. But now that I’ve seen this film trailer it makes we want to up the ante a little. With the state full of primo skate destinations the radius to explore gets wider…Anyone down for some riding and skating as the weather gets warm?

COMMENT

I’m down. I’ve been talking about going on a bike tour for a while now and have always debated if I should bring my board. It’s not much different for me now. I just bike to the spots/park.
