FIXED GEAR ARCHIVE

Tom La Marche

BIO:

Thomas La Marche is a former professional FGFS rider from the Philadelphia area. He is widely considered one of the best fixed gear riders of all time.

Tom first appeared in the Bootleg Sessions 1 DVD released in 2007. Since then, he has traveled the world with his bike filming and competing in competitions. He is notoriously not a competition rider, but has released some of the most impactful web edits and DVD sections in history.

While his name was already big within the scene, Tom really exploded in popularity after the release of his WRAHW welcome video, garnering over 100k views.

In 2011, Tom was invited to the prestigious Red Bull Ride + Style competition. Tom notably showed up to practice, but left before the competition started to allegedly ride street.

Tom’s last video was released in 2014 by Tom Briggs, retiring from the fixed gear scene to pursue a Hollywood stunt career.
