Merckx Mondays

All photos by Andy White

Having just let go of my beauty last year (my Stuttgart Pista, not a girl), I know how hard it is to say goodbye. Andy’s had to make that decision recently, forcing him to sell his beautiful MX-Leader track bike. Like my Stuttgart, his MXL represented his brand and his shop, FYXO Hub. But that doesn’t mean when you sell it, you can’t take it out for one last photo shoot. And like a good friend, he sent these my way!

Check out more Fyxomatosis-submitted Merckx Mondays below!

See more incredible portraits at Fyomatosis! Oh and, in case you wanted something else, check out this “Team USA” Eddy Merckx road. Yeeesh.

    any clue on why he had to sell it? or was it just time to move on.

      He needed money for a family emergency.

      No it’s not. It’s tastefully done and there’s no T&A – not to mention the bike is immaculate.

        No T&A? Yeah, cause clearly the third photo is all bike.

          I see no bare tits nor ass.

            Fair call. It’s all a fair call. There is absolutely no comparison as far as class and style goes. Andy is a master photographer and builder and I love the female form as much as the next man so it’s the best thing to see the two of them together.

            Referencing that horrible site, the Fixfixfix was out of line!

            I completely agree. I completely apologise to Andy, John and all readers.

           No the third photo is of the Fyxo shifter necklace around her neck: http://www.fyxomatosis.com/index.php/fyxo-store#ecwid:category=2836245&mode=category&offset=0&sort=addedTimeDesc

        And I was also just making a bit of a pun but it obviously went awry. My apologies, Andy.

    That girl needs to move out of the way. I can’t see the bike.

  • Jake
