Arnhem/Amsterdam got another girl running wild on a fixed gear!
We build this Batavus Pro Pursuit frame (one of only three ever made) for Josine, Skitch’s girlfriend, since the frame was too small for him, but fitted her perfectly. The handlebars have been cut another 2 inches at both sides, so the looks have been improved after the photo has been shot. As soon as the bike is back in Arnhem, I’ll take a new pic.

Second rough edit teaser from the trip from Amsterdam to Paris by a group of fixed riders.
this time it’s the arrival in Roubaix at the finish of the classic Paris Roubaix 2010.

Every month they got a critical mass in Antwerp! It might be interesting to join them, we could contact the Fixed Gear Antwerp guys so we can chill with them too. Sounds nice, doesn’t it? Since the August Critical Mass is on Friday the 27th and the Don’t Get Lost in the Back Streets Alleycat is on the 28th. We might book a cheap hostel or try to crash on people’s couches…

The nice guys from Fixed Gear Antwerp are organizing an alleycat, with a very nice flyer! This is what they say about it:

Time to unpack and mount that fiftytwo-toothed cog and speed your way to Antwerp. On the 28th of August we’re organizing the allready infamous Don’t Get Lost in the Back Streets alleycat/messenger race.

Are you still the Pizza Delivery Boy-master? Did you earn your shotgun(s) by irresponsibly taking over the wheel from a cab in GTA? Then you’re the right (wo)man for the job! In fact, we’ll spread a few packages over the city. Up to you to pick ‘em up and deliver them to their next destination. Pretty easy, right? It’s gonna be fast, it’s gonna be fearsome but it’s sure gonna be frekkin’ fun. But look out for alley cats and fixed vixens!

You wanna join in? Mail your name, postal code and social security number to fixedgearantwerp@gmail.com. Act fast cuz we’ve only got packages for twenty roadrunners. There’s absolutely no need to start studying the city-map, we’ll try and make sure you don’t get lost in the backstreets. Oh, don’t forget to bring your backpack/messenger bag and one shiny 2 eurodollar-coin so we can stuff you with food from our bbq!

Even if you don’t feel like racing, just come and join us for fun and drinks at Bar Nadar. And flick your self-hunted marinated chicken-filet on the grill!

Timelapse of our recent trip and stay in London.

Critical Film – A documentary about a very special weekend of cyclo cross racing. It only took 126 km of dirt, gravel and cobblestones devided in 4 stages between Dresden and Leipzig, 80 racers, 9 hours, 35°C, 600 liters of water, a ton of food, a world cup quarterfinal and many many enthusiastic souls, to make this an unbelievable experience.

They call it “CRITICAL DIRT – A study in crossification”.

e r t z u i ° film has captured this event along the dirt with our very own perspective.

Music: Tortoise – Ten Day Interval (TNT, 1998)
