Fujioso Posted February 28, 2012 Share Nice piece about Ertjies. You can feel the presence of the man through the writing. Watching these guys duke it out in the Rapport tour is what ignited my love for cycling. I remember how I drooled over those Vitus frames. Aluminium man!!!! How things have changed.
