Bike messenger vs pro downhill rider…..

Back in 1999 my television career started when someone from the Dutch television called our company (Velocity). With the question if one of the messengers was willing to take on the Dutch champion downhill racing on a race down the longest stairs of europe for this tv show called ‘Dat kan ik ook’ (I can do that too). Everyone knew I liked going down the stairs here in my hometown (Arnhem). So I got this woman on the phone asking me if I would except that challenge. And of course I would, damn the longest stairs in europe you must be crazy not to except a challenge like that.
But she warned me because she first asked the messengers in Rotterdam and none had the balls to do it. Then see called the messengers in Amsterdam and they refused also but said to here you should call Arnhem, there’s a guy crazy enough.
So a couple of months later we went to Liège (Luik) in Belgium and searched for the stairs, then suddenly there it was….

That’s gonna be a whole lot of fun riding down this shit!

So after a couple of minutes we meet the camera crew and the girl who was presenting the show (Aniko van Santen). And also the man himself Gerwin Peters, dutch downhill champion and at that moment fourth in the UCI rankings. Later that year he would get second place in the overall ranking. A really nice guy who brought two massive machines with him. Two downhill bikes from the Dutch national team. I never owned a suspension bike let alone a full suspension downhill bike… And then they also gave me the bike from Bas de Bever a famous BMX and downhill rider here in the Netherlands and right now hard coach of the Dutch BMX team.

To make a long story short I told my colleges, i’ll crash or i’ll win!

So here is my television debut and for all the none Dutch speakers you can go to the action right here!

And a last shot looking down because it brings great memories.

Yes, a new post. It’s been a while but hé friends asked me to post this youtube clip. Cause they thought it would be a nice in the bike porn category. Sorry to say it ain’t porn… But still funny.

An because I couldn’t find the ‘real’ porn movie from the clip above and wanted to make it a real bike porn post I found this photo shoot, so enjoy!

First of all I want to congratulate him with the birth of his second son. And knowing him he’s probably called Junior II

But as you know Vincent and myself were at the UCI BMX Supercross World cup at Papendal this weekend. And damn that shit is so cool. Those guys and girls were flying.

But afterwards there was a party and because we like a beer every now and then, we went there. And although we didn’t know what to expect, we said to each other, if only we meet one of the Colombian guys our evening would be great. Why a Colombian you might ask…. Well here comes Felipe back again. You should know he was the National Colombian BMX champion (for a couple of times I believe) back in the days before he moved to the US. So naturaly we were cheering for the Colombians during the race (and the Dutch of course).
We went there and met a couple of great guys and girls like Ivo van der Putten, Bas de Bever and Manon Valentino (damn she is so cute with here dreadlocks). And a lot of local hero’s like Woeste Willem, no Facebook page but I found a clip. But still no Colombians that is until we saw a table in the back with some ‘South American’ looking guys. We went to them and asked if they know the Colombians. And yes they were the Colombians. We started a conversation (not completly sober) and there was one realy nice guy, Carlos Oquendo! We had a really nice conversation with the guy. And of course we talked about Felipe and according to Vince Carlos knew him, he said Felipe was a great rider but they never rode together. So it was great meeting him. *picture*

And to you my friend (Felipe) I hope everything is great for you and your new born son and that we meet soon! And don’t say, who is that guy in the picture on the left, it’s still me but without dreadlocks.

And to complete this post a couple of clips from the helmet of Carlos Oquendo, thanks buddy!

And he also rides downhil!
