Cycling for Life 2009

CFL 2009

Next sunday, Dec.20th, Studio Brussels is organising a ride-in as part of the Music For Life 2009 campaign against Malaria in the world.

The idea is that you do laps around the Eddy Merckx velodrome in Ghent and pay for it. The more people come over, the better the fund raising will be. Plus, it’ll be HEAPS of fun!

Everybody is welcome, from beginners to pista experts. You don’t even have to own a bike! All you need to bring is a pair of (cycling) shoes and a pair of pedals, and a bike will be provided for you!

Check out all details on this link! Sorry peeps it’s in Dutch but hopefully all of you know someone who can read it. If not, holler and we’ll be happy to help with more info!

Ride hard, ride good and do the right thing!!!

Go Nicolas!

This saturday evening the good lads at Dealer Bikes will be organising an awesome event! We’ve already been spoiled this year by the excellent event the boys from Brussels had put together (review), and it looks like we’re in for another great treat!

There will be an alley cat, a drag race, skid comp, street Keirin and who knows what other goodies!

On top of that the Dealer cru are showing us the Belgian premiere of the kick-ass movie ‘The Revival’. Obviously in a pub so we’ll be enjoying a few cold ones while we watch the madness unfold. FGF style!

Today is the LAST day to enroll for this event so if you haven’t done so get crackin’ cuz you don’t want to miss this for all the hookers in the world! Registration info can be found on the dealer website!

Hope to see y’all there!!!

UPDATE:

The event was a great success! Although the weather was shitty to the max, lotsa people turned up and rode hard. Some didn’t but drank hard instead:) We saw the movie together and I’m getting the feeling that the fixed riders in Belgium are getting along quite nicely. There is definitely something brewing and that’s all the better for the future of fixed cycling in this lil’ ol’ country!

A BIG BIG BIG up to the Dealer crew for organising the event!!! Kudos allover!

What does motivate the FGF-crew to be part of this years edition?
Primus draft / Hot dogs / Techs / OompaLoompa music.
For those of us who aren’t convinced check the impressions from the ‘08 edition here.
