Kert Petersel, who used to ride for Simple but now rides for Metal, got a hookup with éclat. From the éclat blog:
Sean Burns told me that we needed to give Metal team rider Kert Petersel some parts, so we did. And even though Kert lives in Estonia, he somehow managed to be working at the exact same place that distributes éclat there. So we said, “Please, take what you need,” and he did. He was also nice enough to send over some pics of his new bike built up, and he said that the parts are “Boneproof.” I need a drink. Thanks Kert!
Kert Petersel of the Simple Bikes team in Estonia has got an interview up on the BMX Union blog. Interesting read for sure. He’s a nice guy and he seems to have his head on straight. He’s also a bad ass rider if any of you guys have missed that fact.
Another Simple teamrider and good friend, Adrian Malmberg, has got a new web edit online courtesy of filmer/editor Samuel Segawa. Adrian is a really amazing rider with so much talent and I always enjoy the clips of him riding. He also had a nasty spill recently where he messed up on a rail and managed to get his ear split open by the peg, not nice! He’ll be ok soon I’m sure.
