To Live & Ride In L.A. from TRAFIK on Vimeo Just found this clip on midnightridazz.com, and as I was watching it unspool way too quickly I kept thinking “Awesome!” and “I wish this were longer — like feature length.” Then at the end my prayers were answered when the screen read: “Coming 2010.” While …
