We're the Sole Runners Scooter Club based out of New Brunswick, New Jersey. We're a group of close-knit friends who ride Lambrettas and live throughout New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York City. We have an undying passion for riding, working on, racing, and in turn destroying old Lambretta motorscooters. From Series 1 to Series 3, Li to GP (and even SX), Italian, Spanish, and Indian, choppers, J-ranges, customs, and stocks we have and ride them all!
Also, every year at the end of August we throw an asskicking rally in New Jersey called the "Ride-On Weekender". For five 5 years of throwing the rally and 10 years of riding we've continued to leave our centerstands and tire tracks in the mud in the mud of the East Coast scooter scene, and we don't plan on going anywhere just yet!
Friday night we're back at the Brighton with two tight touring bands, The Forthrights from NYC and Green Room Rockers from Indiana. It's an all ages show, so we'll see you a little earlier than usual for our usual mischief. The bar will still be open so if you're over 21 don't forget your ID. If you want to pick up your tickets in advance just click on the flyer below! Brick By Brick Productions Presents: August 7th @ The Brighton 121 Brighton Ave, Long Branch NJ 5pm, All Ages, $10 Hub City Stompers The Forthrights (NYC) Green Room Rockers (Indiana) Rocco's Basement
I also just got back from Jamaica with - a whole heap of incredible new ska, rocksteady and early reggae 45s on labels like Beverley's, Top Deck, Tuneico, Treasure Isle and more! - a selection of Jamaican vinyl LPs we've never had in the store before! We've also got a new batch of Roots Reggae titles (not yet available on the regular site) in the CD Sale, and a huge selection of clearance 45s. You can only find out about the Secret Sales by signing up for the Stubborn Records e-mail list at http://www.versioncity.com/lists
