CrossFondue video & photos

Gerard Vroomen - 13-Mar-2017

If you're subscribed to the UPDATES, you probably know we held the first annual CrossFondue recently. It was a nice little ride for customers, dealers & media and we also used it to show them a sneak preview of the U.P.P.E.R.. Marc was there to shoot the whole event and here are the results. First off is a quick little video that nicely captures the varied terrain of our loop around Basel:

Marc also shot a ton of photos, and instead of showing just the highlights, we'll put all of them here in the gallery. That way those who participated can download the ones they like the best. Enjoy! And of course, if you couldn't make it this time around, we hope to see you for the next edition.

It was a superb day, thanks Marc for the nice pictures and video. My back is still hurting but it was worthwhile.

Yes, it was a really nice group, I agree. Would be nice to let more people experience it but of course, it was also nice exactly because it was small. A conundrum.

You're welcome, it was a great day and we were pretty lucky with the weather. Although -10 and show would have been fun too!

Thanks again for the ride! I keep thinking about it. Perfect day. It also made me a better rider as it was a bit outside of my comfort zone.

Looks like a great ride. Interesting demographic. Mostly males in their 40's. Much like myself. I will hopefully get a U.P. and join the club!

This looks AMAZING! I've been wanting / shopping for a gravel bike for years, a good friend of mine told me about this brand and I've begun reading a lot about your bikes. I'm thoroughly impressed and now have to choose between continuing to save for a house, or emptying my bank account to buy one :-) !!! I hope this event is yearly!
