Dean Dickinson’s documentary from late 2007, Take It or Leave It: A BMX Shralpumentary, was recently selected to be a part of the New York City Bicycle Film Festival. In case you missed the film, it documents BMXer’s frustrations with skatepark politics, and the search through abandoned wastelands for alternative avenues to session concrete. Presented by Lotek and produced by Dean, the film features riding from throughout the Northwest and California, including Chester Blacksmith and Dakota Roche.
