After a short introduction into the history of track bikes, and a tour through the Sur Place exhibition, everybody hopped on a bike. Time to hit the road to get some hands-on experience!
We successfully maneuvered the streets of Amsterdam, and arrived at the Muziektheater on Waterlooplein, where the real fun started. Sunshine and the Dutch victory over Japan (1-0) ensured happy faces and a will to conquer. After two hours, everyone had mastered skid stops and track stands, and were ready to take on the indoor track. A great day, all in all. There are another few fixie master classes in the pipeline, so keep your eye on this website. Definitely recommended!
