The special guest of the day was hip-hop legend Philadelphia Freeway (Roc-a-Fella) alongside hometown pro bike rider Chino (MMG). These two gentleman have had a huge influence throughout the DMV area and drew out a very vibrant crowd.  Other notable guests were AJ and Lil Blac of 92Q, and DJ Lil Mic.
 

 

 

 

 
Both Chino & Freeway shared a number of laughs, autographs and photos with tons of kids whom came out to see the duo. Chino showed his brand new bike to fans and also held his first of many #BikeLifeHoliday raffles.
