Chengdu Living: “Alleycat” Street Race Catalyzes Chengdu’s Cyclists

121105 Chengdu Living

The Natooke Bicycle Shop hosted Chengdu’s first “Alleycat” street race this last Saturday, and it was a historic event that drew together hundreds of members of the city’s burgeoning bicycle sub-culture under the Natooke banner.

In case you aren’t familiar with an alleycat (as I wasn’t), it is an informal, urban bicycle street race that demands quick thinking and knowledge of the streets as much as a heavy pedal. Birthed from the bicycle messenger culture of cities like Toronto and New York City, alleycat races can attract hundreds of cyclists who race between checkpoints, often on fixed gear bicycles.

Who’s in the saddle? Tom Lanhove, founder

How did the club start? ‘I’m Belgian, so cycling is like an addiction for me. When I first arrived in Beijing, in 2005, I was cycling with Tri-Beijing, who were very focused on training. I’m more of a recreational cyclist and began cycling in the mountains around the city. Our club was officially founded in 2007 and we have had regular rides every weekend since.’
