Ohjoyohjoyohjoy

Ohjoyohjoyohjoy,

I got the frame!!! My customized Damocles ISP left the paintshop this week and is now ready for assembly.
Believe me, the picture doesn't do it justice.



I was hoping to ride this bike next week during the Eurobike show, but it won't get assembled in time :( But have no fear, the Ridley gang is still planning on riding from the hotel to the fair and back every day. We will use the Noah RS frames we took to the Demo Day. If least if the weather is not so crappy as it is here in Belgium...

This week we got a whole bunch of Britisch, Scotisch, Irisch... dealers over, i took the opportunity to join one of the group rides. Good weather, nice roads, good companionship... As a little extra pro- rider Geert Omloop joined us.
It is fun to get to know the people who buy and sell our bikes.
The highlights of the ride were the passage at the Grasbos in Diest and the sprint at the Ridley factory.

Before i forget i want to congratulate Arne van Snick with his performance at the track world championships in Montichiari (Italy).
We are glad that our new Arena frame helped Arne to achieve his goals. An overview of the races in which he competed with the Arena
  • 9th place overal scratch
  • 10th place overal omnium
2nd place sprint 200m TT in a new national record 13.6sec
20th place points race
9th place sracth
11th place elimination race


This is looking good for the European championships in St-Petersburg! A big thumbs up from the Ridley team!!!

Stay tuned for live coverage from the Eurobike show next week.

I'm off

Cheers

Yannick
