Riders used brakeless fixed-gear bicycles . There were often crashes during the races due to the high speeds and technical courses.[ 3] It was at one time sponsored by Rockstar Games , among others.
A women's competition was added to the event in 2014.[ 4] [ 5]
In 2019 the race series was canceled.[ 6]
