the tubes are in...

this is what 500€ inner tubes look like...
so don't worry if you blow a tire during your next contest in belgium,
just as the rider, tubes are no secured as well...

skatepark news...

So with the time off x-mas and so, here is some skatepark updates:

newpact:
they have found a new building and started building from zero.
according true the info, using frank's topramps "unique" construction technique
in short, the ramps will again be build without 2x4's and will move when you ride them...

forward:
skatepark is open, and according to pictures looks good.
as for what i've heard, it's plastic pegs only, but i don't mind that.

zumiez:
racebikes only.

oostende:
is finaly being build!
so far the good news i'm afraid.
it's being build by olivier construct from izegem!!!
they do build very nice roads and bridges.
it's going to prefab, and the old bad plan is now changed in a lite version of that plan.
so good job oostende on spending lot's of €'s on a 70's style snakerun.
next time use a skatepark builder.

remember the picture contest?

well...
We won!
yep, 5th place in the main competition, and thats good for 500€ (=$730),
and the picture is going to be published what is even better.
the plan is to go to the decathlon superstore here and buy 500€ inner tubes!
then everyone who ever brakes one at one of our contests will get a new one for free.
this should last us a few years.
beside it, it will be cool to just go order so many tubes.

barcelona

i'll be in barca from feb 20 till feb 23.
if you want to come let me know.
ryanair is having a sale:
tickets are 50€ for a return from charleroi to girona
this includes all taxes and visa costs, and 1 bag of 15 kg (to put you bike in, just don't tell them)
if you want to take your bike like it is, straight to the plane, it will cost you 100€ including everything (20€ ticket, + 40€ each way for your bike)
still very cheap.

ps: notice the star on the top of your screen next to Crank?
you have no idea how proud i am that i got it their.
took me 6 months to figure that one out.
yes, i'm still a nerd.

mike and me got an invite in the town theater to go to the price ceremony of the picture contest.
