Plot Summary
For fixed-gear cyclists, Los Angeles is a city that has it all. From the neon glow of Hollywood to the sun-drenched boardwalk of Venice Beach, fixed-gear has evolved into a vibrant street culture that is uniquely L.A. From director David Rowe (Fast Friday) comes a new documentary feature that explores a side of L.A. few outsiders have ever seen. From races through rush-hour traffic to midnight loft parties, To Live & Ride in L.A. is a fast paced-trip through the busy streets and back-alleys of one of the world's largest cities. To Live & Ride in L.A. features talented local riders tearing up the streets with first-time visitor Keo Curry (Fast Friday, Macaframa) - one of the living legends of the sport. Bike to hidden spots off the map, race a midnight alley-cat, keep pace with the riders from Wolfpack, and hang with the local crews, graffiti artists and other L.A. personalities burning up the fixed-gear scene. With a killer soundtrack featuring top indie artists combined with amazing HD footage, To Live & Ride in L.A. is destined to become a cult classic.
Customer Reviews
Cycling in Circles
An interesting concept, but fails to live-up to what I'd call a documentary. It is more like a hour long cycling music video. You never really learn about the people. And they seem like good people who likely have interesting backgrounds and histories. I wasn't impressed by it, as most of the other reviewers appear to be. Maybe I'm missing the point.
SoSo
This film definitely shows the fixed gear culture of cycling that is popping up in urban cities. The film does a good job of documenting the bike riding too.
I would say the film was so so. It is worth watching once but not again and again. I would recommend just renting it.
All Day.. LA
I'm not a cyclist, but this movie makes me want to ride a bike. The city shots are beautiful and the soundtrack is awesome. David Rowe has done it again! He was able to capture what most people don't get to see about LA and prove that not all Los Angelinos are bad. This isn't an actual documentary, but if you're into bikes, good people and a fun time.... definitely check out this movie!
