Dear FUCCIT followers,

As you might have noticed, the amount of posts on FUCCIT has gone down drastically.
I survived the first 3 weeks of my new job, well survived sounds dramatic, coz I love my new job! But since my new job is an office job, me sitting behind a computer all day every day, I kinda lost the interest to search the world wide web for interesting content to post on FUCCIT. I still got a real life beside FUCCIT. I need my telly and Mrs. Votske likes attention too…
And I find it harder every day to find kinda original content to put on this blog. It’s the always returning question, what is and what isn’t interesting enough to re-post?
Running a fixed gear blog isn’t as easy as it might sound. Every self respecting fixed gear enthusiast already follows Prolly, ZLOG or Pedal Consumption, so there’s no need to re-post the vids or pics posted there, unless they’re REALLY cool.

I wish I could say I’m posting less because of the fact I’m always outside riding, but that ain’t true… I’m getting really sick and tired of all the ice and snow! It’s been AGES since the last proper street session. Or even a long distance ride…
Maybe I should get this Livestrong Limited Edition Indoor Cycle:

It might not come close to a proper street session, but at least I can get rid of all the extra energy, build up in me. I can’t sit still behind my desk anymore! 
That might be one of the New Year’s resolutions I could have, move more! Having an office job combined with quitting smoking sounds like a recipe for getting fat!

I think 2011 can be a very interesting year.
I personally will try to find more original content, focus more on the quality than the quantity of posts.
We should finally go outside and use Tjeerd’s GoPro for making a fixed gear mountain biking / cyclocross edit instead of letting him only use it for his home made bike porn collection.
Will Mitch move from 700C to 26″?
Will I get fat?
Will Tjeerd and Le Haute post more?
Will Mitch make his first post on FUCCIT?
Will bike polo make a return in Arnhem?
Will FUCCIT get a make over?
Will Stoffel move back to Arnhem?
Will Utje finally get pubic hair?
Will Mitch get a better nickname than Skitch or Spiderman?
Will FUCCIT get merchandise?
Will Tjeerd stay bald?
Will Cancellara win the Tour?

Enough questions left to answer in 2011, so FUCCIT! Double C, I, T!

Enjoy your NYE, whatever you might do, where ever you might go!

Today Utje and I went to the Bike Motion tradeshow in the Jaarbeurs in Utrecht. We were supposed to go by train, but Utje’s neighbour wanted to go too, so we went with his car instead! 
When we arrived at the Jaarbeurs, it was a struggle to get the van in the parkinglot, due to stupid barriers that weren’t working…
When we arrived we had a look around and we walked to the polo court to say hi and congratulate Schilham with his birthday. It was a shame to find out there was a hostile vibe towards me/FUCCIT. After a quick chat with a couple of friendly guys, we found Stoffel and Skitch joined the crew too for a stroll around the trade show. 
Despite the fact fixies are hot right now, there weren’t that much booths with fixies or fixie parts… We still enjoyed ourselves though! There were lovely road racing bikes and mountain bikes to be seen, and even lovelier booth babes! 
And I lost 3 times from Utje…

1. AA drink Gold Sprints
2. Holland Sport Gold Sprints
3. Soulcycle Arm wrestling

Another conclusion, energy bars and drinks are disgusting! We tried out several ones, and all the bars taste like old chewing gum and the drinks are nasty!
And Stoffel couldn’t get his hands on a single beer!

When we were back in Westervoort, Utje’s mum made us a lovely dinner! Some kind of tasty green soup with nice fresh bread. Thank you for that!

Some bike geek facts about the Arnhem – Westervoort – Arnhem ride:

• Time: 36m50s
• Distence: 14.24km
• Average speed: 23.1km/h
• Top speed: 37.9km/h
• Burned calories: 234.9

This lovely looking German is looking for an appartement in Zwolle, Kampen or Arnhem. So if anyone might know something, please let me know! And ask your friends, family, co-workers if they might know something. He got a job in Kampen, but is still living in Southern Germany, not quite handy, is it? So help us turn this German into a proper Dutchy! And his lovely girlfriend and baby boy…

Thanks!

Just got the link from our German team member Stoffel: Cinelli True Stories!
I must say, there are some nice pictures of some very nice bikes on that website!

Our dear friend Stoffel became a dad! I don’t have the details yet, but we from Fuccit want to congratulate the new and proud father!

Our German friend Stoffel likes Cinelli, and so do I!

Guus went to the barber last week and got a new haircut, he didn’t wanna look like Guus Meeuwis anymore and decided Sting during his Police time was a better rolemodel for him. So right now he’s talking about red lights all the time…

But if you want to join Stoffel (Bruce Springsteen lookalike) and Guus in their lookalike polo evening, you’ll have to be at the new FUCCIT court around 7 pm this tuesday…

I just made a 55 minute mix of most of the German Electro, Hiphop and Techno Stoffel (aka Mr. Goldie Locks) made us listen to in the car to, in and on the way back from Berlin. So this mix gets me back to a perfect long weekend in Berlin!
