To the top 2 fastest riders in both categories – congrats… MBS prize for $500 and $100 awaits. We just need a while more to confirm the results standing.

What a turnout! Cyclists from all walks of life coming together to cycle planned routes that Spectrum (Event organiser) paid to close off. Of course we contributed with our registration and got a jersey, goodie bag etc.

While there was still the frustrating bottleneck at Lavender/Crawford section where most cyclists had to walk, the event overall was well organised and showed that the organisers learnt from the past and implemented new arrangements.

My Bike Shop members and their bike brands, Dahon, Flamingo, Airnimal, Bike Friday, Moulton turned up for mostly the Nissan challenge (40km) event from 540am and we were flagged off along with the other 5000+ other cyclists. Overall we understood that this year had 10000 cyclists.

We were flagged off in waves and the routes along ECP were pushed to the Expressway and not constraint to the narrow and tight East Coast PCN. It was truly a great feeling cycling over 4 car lanes… 100+ and water were dished out and the route had people cheering on.

At our booth, we had hefty discounts on Schwalbe Ultremos, I-Fit Sleeves, O-Synce Meters to help new adopters for these much needed stuff.

Send your photos to us and we will add them in the album.

Have a great weekend of whatever is left of it and get plenty of rest!

Last but not least – Congrats and thanks to Spectrum who has outdone themsleves compared with last year’s event.

Dahon emerges top again (3 years in a row) in the Nocturne Series

In a race dominated by British brands, Dahon emerges again the fastest in the race. The competitors, dressed in business attire will wait 30m away from their folded bikes, at the drop of the British Flag the competitors run to their steeds building them as fast as they can and setting off on a 5 lap dash.

Keith Henderson is the “Armstrong” of folding bikes in these Nocturne Series!  This year among 97 riders, Keith rode on his MuEX and watch him in the Youtube videos. In true commuter spirit, winner takes all – there’s no second chance when it comes to catching your train… Despite the fierce competition, barging and even a little cheating as commuters race to prove their skills. Keith came out tops!

As the winner, he was crowned the 2010 Folding Bike Champion and received a Dahon Speed Pro TT as their trophy.

Prize presentation. That guy must have like THREE SpeedPro TTs as prizes LoL!
