Outside magazine collaborated with GearJunkie this month to assemble a beginner’s guide to alleycat bike racing. “With the number of urban cyclists surging, more and more riders are taking part in alleycats,” Outside cited.
This is the second urban biking topic we’ve looked at with Outside of late. (See “Outside Magazine asks GearJunkie Editor to ‘Debate’ Fixed-Gear Bikes.”)
