“The TFTC – Criterium wraps up a weekend of riveting competition the following day. An unsanctioned race held in the night, the fixed gear criterium covers an undisclosed race distance, over multiple laps of an undisclosed technical circuit, the veil of secrecy adds to its appeal in the underground sub-culture of fixed gear events.
A field of cycling enthusiasts featuring; professionals, amateurs, messengers, and urban cyclists from the region and as far a field as Australia and the United Kingdom. With only 40 slots for this year, there will not be any reservation of slots, entry submissions are on a first come first served, whilst slots lasts basis.”
“Cykeln is a simple magazine, the world of fixed gear managed and created by two fans of fixed gear bikes and urban lifestyle. We needed a magazine like that and we have created it.”

“Founded in 2008, RnR is the union of personalities from different backgrounds inspired by both the world of skateboarding and 80’s by Marcel Duchamp, the world of Hell’s Angels or the career of Bernard Hinault.
(…)
In 2009, after organizing a series of wild disguise wrinkles, film screenings, of Rolla contests, they decide to embark on a new project: “RocknRollin Classics” that will attempt to revisit the classics of cycling but a fixed gear.
(…)
Parties on the road for more than 260kms in hostile terrain (53kms of pavement), unprepared, with inadequate bike, everyone will have to adjust to another so that the group survives to the end.
(…)
The result is a magnificent collection of images taken on the spot by Ros and Yann making a film that goes beyond the original idea to keep a souvenir.
Interviews with various personalities enrich the film and provide information about the context of this legendary race by creating a narrative rhythm that accompanies cyclists to Roubaix.”

“This year brings something new to the table. For SF Sprints 3 the race will take place during the afternoon instead of the night, this is for two reasons: 1) It’s a whole hell of a lot less cold during the day and 2) It’s a whole hell of a lot easier to take pictures during the day.
The biggest of the changes has to do with how things will run on race day. This year everyone races by themselves until the very last, champion deciding race. Each racer gets two heats where they’ll race against the clock, the fastest of their two times is then used as their only time. The two racers who have the fastest runs will go head to head leaving just one winner.”
