DONATE TO THE TEEN DREAM FUND

Chicago Cuttin’ Crew rider Brian Ellison recently had a bad fall at Kenosha Velodrome and had to be airlifted to the hospital. He is currently recovering with a broken collarbone and a cracked skull but his wallet is probably what hurts the most (helicopter rides ain’t cheap). Brian is off to Lees-McRae College soon to try and further his career as a bike racer but he needs a little help to get back on top of things.

The Teen Dream Fund has been set up by Brian’s friends to help him pay down his massive medical bills. Please go and show him some kindness!

Now this is a vintage photo.

This is my favorite shot from Ed White’s latest set of race photos from Kenosha Velodrome. Dude is going for it!

Did you know that our man Ed White is not just a talented photographer? He’s also a DJ who’s been workin’ the streets in Chicago for a while now. He’s got a lot of great old school Chicago house mixtapes which you can check out here.
