Friday, May 9th, 2008 At 5:30pm starting in Santa Monica, 28 bicyclists took surface streets to the 1-10 Fwy at Bundy and rode 0.44 miles to the I-405 N on-ramp and rode another 1.56 miles to the Santa Monica Blvd. exit. Riders spanned a total of 2.0 freeway miles. The group of riders also hung a 20'x6' banner on the 17th street overpass overlooking the eastbound I-10 Freeway in Santa Monica that read RIDE A BIKE YOU'D BE HOME BY NOW. The sign remained in place for over 48 hours.
This ride alone has hit the public pretty hard since the ride, from coverage by NPR to Digg to Santa Monica Daily Press to Joke Is Up to The Homegrown Evolution and even WIRED.
This video is another stunning work by Richtotheie, who of course NEVER disappoints. He gave exclusive priveleges to Funderstorm to produce all the audio tracks for the video work. This is the second track we've produced for the Crimanimal Freeway series.
Every thing we've been doing pushes LA bicycle culture to a funner level, which in turn pushes the rest of the world to get to a more funnererest level. Let's see this video!
