It is finally here.
the nice round nr of 2020. The year 2019 was a tight scheduled and intense year of preparing, building, growing and of course a little bit of riding. We gained one bike but also lost one. We added a new member to the crew and kept all the old ducks in row.
The time was for the old LC8 to be passed on. Been with us plenty and seen enough good and bad times and our development and learning time with that platform was long and it was time to move on. Now we have a new girl. LC8 – still orange. Still with 2 cylinders but with now sitting parallel to each other. We really hope that 2020 will bring very fond memories to the bank and will top the 2019 by a long way. This year we had some great bikes in the shop. Not too much, but longer projects (just like we hoped for) and these needed to be upgraded and repaired and built and this year was actually better in that aspect also, that none of the bikes needed to be written off. We learned a lot more with some difficult projects than expected and also these made us more confident in what we want to do and in wich direction to move on.
