This year marked the re-opening of one of our favorite Southern California tracks, Pala Raceway. Located south of Temecula, the track is known for its fun, technical layout and amazing dirt. During one of their numerous trips to Pala, Ricky Diaz and Jacob Johnson produced this epic short film titled "The Ride", which features Ricky riding into the gates aboard his custom Cafe Racer before throwing huge whips. If you haven't already seen the video, it's definitely worth checking out. And let's be honest, you're probably relaxing with a holiday drink right now, so what else do you have to do?
