Thanks to Pristine, Fishmeister and Mike from MASH, I had a lovely day racing through Amsterdam on the busiest day of the Sail 2010 event! I even talked Danish delight Josi into racing with me, the girl landed less than 24h before the race in Amsterdam and didn’t know her way around town, but the girl rocked, she can race and dodge tourists like a pro!
I’m still not used to going to these kind of events without drinking before, in and after the race… But hey, I can have fun without alcohol! Can I?

Hey everyone. I messed up the date, next saturday is August 21st of course, not September. So yeah, we’re organizing an alleycat next saturday with Mike from Mash. None other than Stefan Vis is setting the course. We’re starting at the shop around three ‘o clock. Come and race, there will be cool prizes from Cinelli and Mash. Tell your friends!

Found at the Pristine blog.

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.

• Frame: Batavus Pro Pursuit
• Fork: Unknown
• Bars: Humpert Riser bars with Fyxation Grips
• Stem: Pro LT 60mm
• Headset: Pro
• Seatpost + Clamp: Cheap + Came with the frame
• Seat: Brooks Colt (vintage, not the re-issue!)
• Crank: BLB Freestyle Cranks 165mm
• Bottom Bracket: Came with frame
• Sprocket: BLB 44t
• Front wheel: Miche Primato laced to Miche Aero rim 24h. 23c Schwalbe Lugano tire
• Back wheel: Miche Primato laced to Miche Aero rim 32h, with 17t BLB  cog. 23c Schwalbe Lugano tire

Tomorrow I’ll be biking from Arnhem to Amsterdam to ride the Annick van Hardeveld. I’ll be leaving Arnhem around 11am to be in Utrecht around 2pm. Does anybody like to join me and Koen?

Cheers, Votske

Prolly has been so kind to spend some space on his blog to the ever growing Amsterdam – Roubaix – Paris ride!
It’s getting bigger and bigger!
Read here.

Don’t expect too much of it, but we got a blog now as well. You can find it in the “links” section of Fuccit, or you can click right here.
Most of the news and discussions will be on our Facebook group, but I’ll try to post most of the news on our blog as well.
We got 19 riders now, and we were thinking about closing the list around 20 riders, so if you want to join us, be quick!

We’ll be riding to Roubaix on April 11th, so we can watch the finish of the Paris – Roubaix race in the velodrome, so if that isn’t another reason to join us, I don’t know it anymore!
You can continue following us on Facebook in the Amsterdam – Paris, a Fixed Gear Adventure group.

The list of riders is growing and growing!
Keng – Amsterdam
Votske – Arnhem
Skitch – Arnhem
Hans – Den Bosch
Gijs – Amsterdam
Jeroen – Amsterdam
Jorrit – Rotterdam
Lot – Rotterdam
Thomas – Utrecht
Pieter Aart – Utrecht
Cavin – Amsterdam
Kamaal – Amsterdam 
Sammy – Amsterdam
Nick – Amsterdam
Guus – Den Bosch

If you still want to join us, be quick, ’cause we’re thinking about closing the registration at 20 riders!

In spring 2010 a group of “young” fixed gear riders will ride their bikes from Amsterdam to Paris. During this 5 day trip, they’ll session street spots along the way, taste the local culture (beer or wine) and try to have as much fun as possible!
A film and photo crew will follow them during their adventures to capture all the mayhem this group of enthousiastics will bring to the city of love!

This Saturday 14th november Amsterdam FiXXXed is organising an Autumn Bike Polo event. The idea behind Throw In Polo is you show up and teams are randomly formed. So fate will decide who’ll you have to team up with.

The tournament starts at 12:00 o’clock at the Johan Cruyff square behind the Olympic Stadium in Amsterdam. Good times guaranteed!

Damn last year I was complaining about the lack of halloween alleycats here in Holland. So I organized one myself. And that was a great success! And now there are two of them on friday you can go to Rotterdam.

And then on saturday you can go to Amsterdam.

And all I have to say is FUCCIT!
I’m going to Berlin!

17th Halloween Alley Cat Race – 31.10.2009 – Start 21:00

Registration at Keirin or online until 30.10.2009. Mail to info@keirinberlin.de
