Merckx Mondays

This Merckx Mondays is from all over the globe, beginning with Sydney where Khalil spotted this Motorola outside a popular bakery. At first, I thought this was his Fyxo-acquired MXL, but alas, it’s another rider’s beaut.

Here’s the bike in action. Nice shot Khalil and killer Fast Folks kit. Check out more here.


Paris Roubaix news is still trickling in.

“Hi John,

Some news from Paris-Roubaix 2012.
Saturday, the day before the Hell.
I was on the cobbles sector. I doing with some friend 148 kms and 24 on the 27 cobbles sectors
This experience was easy because I have a Merckx Caloi titanium Bike from Herman Frisonof the LOTTO-CALOI 1994 Team  with Rockshox Paris-Roubaix fork
and a FYXO kit! Just confortable and perfect for a hard ride.

I wait now the 2012 cyclo run: http://www.vc-roubaix-cyclo.fr/site/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=132&Itemid=13
Hope to have some Worldwide friend to do this. Possibility to come at my  home for sleep and have breakfast and diner if they want

Have a nice day

Séb (Tourcoing / France)”

Amazing!

Last but not least is Apis J’s stickered Eddy Merckx Pista. This one was shot after the 247 Bigtime Criterium, in Kuala Lumpur. You don’t see these frames that often and I’m sure Apis loves this bike to death.
