Merckxy Christmas, and a Coppi New Year

We wish you a Merckxy Christmas

It has been a crazy year, this, with our first annual Keepers Tour sorted, partnerships with the industry’s leading icons including Johan Museeuw, Pavé Cycling Classics, DeFeet, Fizik, and Lezyne – and a book deal to boot (deadline looming large on January 1st). We couldn’t have asked for a better year, and would like to remind you all that none of this – not one part of it – works without you, The Community.

It is a dream come true to be part of Cycling and to have some perceived value within this amazing community. Thank you all. From the bottom of our hearts, we wish you a very Merckxy Christmas, and a Coppi New Year.

Merckx bless you, one and all.

– The Keepers

  • That's right. Fast Freddy Maertens is driving in the new year. 2012 has been great laughing with you all. Let's do it again in 2013.

    Many thanks for providing us with a REAL and wholesome site that is connected to the act and pleasure of riding. This is a great community that so many contribute to make it A joy.

    Everyone, have great and safe holidays and see you on the pave, tarmac, chip seal, road next year!

    ^ What he said as well. IT's been fun and looking to next year.

  • The Big Man with the white beard has indeed been kind this year....if there were a more perfect set of accoutrements, I cannot think of them!

  • Happy Christmas to all, and special thanks to The Keepers, who keep us good boys and girls all year long.

    My cycling swag was some Dulwich Paragon kit, which I have been hankering after for a long time to leave in London and use when I'm back. And a Kindle, which is cycling related because I haven't been able to find the Tyler Hamilton book in Abu Dhabi so now I can download it.

    Oh and when I got home a couple of days ago my wife looked at me in amazement and commented that I had visibly lost weight... early present ! It will all be going back on today though...

    He also dropped Tyler Hamiltons book in my stokcing too!

  • Merckxy Christmas everybody! To the Keeper's, thanks for another year of cycling and non cycling related goodness. Here at the arse end of the world, our Christmas day is almost over for another year. To those on the top half, all the best and may the Prophet bless you all with lots of goodies.

  • It may not be acceptable to mix geekery with looking fantastic, but Santa made me do it:


    Merckx help me but I can be a "red shirt" any time I want now. I hope it won't mean I'm the first to die on away rides....
