Le Mans - We take customers on an tour of the track - One of our factories is in Le Mans. In 2019 we actually took a customer group to the 24hr - Awesome experience I tell you - They have a 24hr bicycle race each year - Our company enters a team and i'm allocated a spot but never seem to be able to make it - Maybe one day !

Window shopping, aka Ooh-aah shopping.

ooh, that’s nice; aah, look at the price.

and then we call Hi-Q across the road when they leave and order new tyres for all the cars they tyre kicked.

Hour 1 of 5. Not feeling my spirit rising. Heading back home. I need more rest.

A short ride to my LBS to thank @GrahamW aka Grumpy for the help with a replacement fork. Already been color matched and painted by the big guy Thys!

Also been struggling with swollen and sore calves, riding always helps with that!

Back to the beginning ...

 

Maritz's very first SPUR event was a wash out at Southey Vines, back in 2018.   Not that any amount of rain could keep him off the bike that day !!!

Had fun lapping and lapping the track today.

 

Maritz was riding those berms ...

The drop-offs, short rocky sections, even the log-section was met with laughter and joy ...
