Yesterday’s Se Bikes x Public Enemy Ride Out was bananas! About 275+ riders took to the streets of NYC for a massive and ride from 145th street in Harlem all the way to Brooklyn where Public Enemy was doing a free concert. “Wildman” Todd Lyons and DBlocks lead the massive crew to BK to present the new “Public Enemy Big Ripper” to Chuck D himself!
There were so many people on SE Bikes from OM’s, Fat Bikes, Fixed Gear, PK Rippers and more. Everybody was hyped watching us wheelie, bunny hop, ride backwards and more through town, people were pulling out their cell phones to capture the dopeness! Even the police were giving out high 5’s to riders as they passed by them.
We hit up all the spots like The Apollo, Central Park West, Times Square, Madison Square Garden, Union Square, Broadway, The Manhattan Bridge, Flatbush Ave, The Barkley Center and Eastern Parkway. It was a long ride but a ton of fun and it was cool to watch everyone getting busy with those wheelies!
A lot of our peeps were at the ride to take part in the madness, Gee Pro of Raw Deal Tees, Mike Wikan, Craig Kellerman and Steve Boyle of Team Corrosive, Dj Thoro of This Is 50, Steve-O from Keyko Trials, Seconda Twostrap Washington of Block Bullies NYC. It was great to ride with them all!
When we finally got to to Betsy Head Park in BK they wouldn’t let the bikes in the park but the homie Seconda Twostrap Washington went in the park and told Chuck D what was going down so Chuck came out the park to kick it with the riders, take photos and check out the new Public Enemy Bike!
What a great way to wrap up an incredible rideout but it wasn’t over! Everybody had to ride all the way back uptown after that lol!! The photo below was taken by Mike Wikan.
Below are some shots we took when we weren’t too busy riding lol!! Video coming soon!
