Baybe Champ says "..our 1st fundraising car wash was truly a success! With a great outcome of dirty cars that was ready to be washed, by eager and enthusiastic members of the Scraper Bike Team. Im proud of those guys! They really showed good team work and proved their commitment to get all those cars washed. I love those kids!!..LoL Special thanks to the T-Birds Motorcyle Club for hosting the event and Stockon's Fancy Ladies Social Club, Roots & Ranches, and members of the Oakland Black Cowboy Association for stopping by and showing their supporting to the Scraper Bike Team"

The Scraper Bike Team is now partnered with Oaklands legendary motorcycle club the "East Bay Dragons" business manager Chief Saba (Ali Ar Rasheed, J.D), to consult and help us become an official "State and Federal Tax Exempt Non-Profit Organization".

Equipping members with the confidence, determination and resources with a global network to provide a life long mentor-ship program.

Best of the Bay 2011

scraperbikes_010-600x322

If bikes are ever going to live up to their potential as game-changers in the world's consumption of fossil fuels, their proponents are gonna need smarts, heart, and damn if they're not gonna need style as well. Luckily, Tyrone "Baybe Champ" Stevenson Jr. has all three covered. The Oakland cyclist started decorating his two-wheelers with flashy strips of foil, elaborate sound systems, and kitschy corporate logos, sparking a movement that now claims a hip-hop video with more than 3 million hits on YouTube, a dedicated East Bay youth massive, and a world of imitators. The Original Scraper Bike Team holds head-turning single-file group rides through its neighborhoods and has become a bike advocate on par with few. Broke environmentalists everywhere can jam with OSBT anthem: "My bike rides hard/Don't need no car."
