Riding Dirty – The Premiere
After two years in the making and unexpected challenges with location property management during the final days leading up to the initial premiere date, Riding Dirty made its way on to the big screen with a sold out theater at the United Artists Snowden Square 14 in Columbia, MD, who graciously welcomed the opportunity to host.
Riding Dirty takes you into the #DMV motorcycle culture by way of commentary and experiences from riders throughout the various segments of the motorcycle community from independents to riding clubs to those in motorcycle clubs (MC) with a sense of history from one of DMV’s oldest and most respected MCs, Down-N-Dirty MC with guest commentary from World Champion Motorcycle Drag Racer, Rickey Gadson. Commentary also includes that from the Maryland State Highway Administration as well as National Capital Park Police and Prince Georges County Police for a complete view from different angles.
Director, Rich “Fraser Fraze” Fraser and Executive Producer Anthony “Fifty†Green appeared on #FOX5DC to discuss the film and how they strategically and at times dangerously weave throughout the various segments of the DMV motorcycle community with the same intensity as those that skillfully yet dangerously weave through traffic on our beltway while remaining unbiased without passing judgment towards any segment.
“Today was a showing of love from the Community. I could not have done this without your all and appreciate you sticking with me throughout the stress of getting a theater to accept us” says Fifty.
Riding Dirty was received enthusiastically by an audience of rousing applause after the final scene with nothing but positive comments from the attendees which male and female riders, independent riders, MCs included Platinum Rollers MC, MD Hill Riders MC, Dueces Wild MC, Platinum Dreams MC, DC Sportbike Riders, Omens MC and so many more. “They did a great job representing so many segments within the timeframe of a documentary” says Wiseguys MC President James “Billy Dee” Price. “Excellent job all around” says Plantinum Rollers President Sean “Black Scorpion” Parker.
Looking to take the DMV story nationwide, the team is looking at deals with major networks. For continued updates and additional premiere photos visit RidingDirtyMovie.com. And as a word of note, not one act of violence or disrespect took place. When some riders were asked to park in the designated spaces, they respectfully obliged with all movie goers enjoying their respective shows. #RidersUnited
