You know how it goes, some person comes up with an idea. He calls in another guy from a second metropolis in a different country who also happens to know this dude from the other country in yet another city. The initiating man’s been a personal friend from that bloke from the third place who happened to be in contact with the other peeps on what’s going on in the hometown of the organisers. And BAM! there it is. Dings, Tours, Rollas so Fuccit, let’s have fun alltogether.

Last day of the week, get out of that white silly-lookin’ uniform. Put on some dickies and a clean fresh polo. Grab my mallet, a ball and some cones, off to the airport. Airplane to Great Britain, cycle over to Tour de Ville for the start of London’s first polocat. Tomorrow are the European Champs on hardcourt. Sigh, gotta keep on dreaming, wish I was there. I’m runing out of both money and time, better concentrate on things to do before the 1st of August comes to Arnhem.

Tomkov was born on July 24, 1972!! The Russian rider stood on the podium in the Grand Tour events four times including one victory. Tomkov won the 1996 Giro d’Italia in front of Enrico Zaina of Italy and Abraham Olano of Spain. Tomkov was 2nd in the 1997 Giro d’Italia behind Ivan Gotti of Italy. Tomkov was also 2nd in the 1998 Giro d’Italia behind Marco Pantani of Italy. In addition, Tomkov was 3rd in 2000 Vuelta a Espana behind Roberto Heras of Spain and Angel Casero of Spain.

Meaning happy or homosexual. Now, I do tend to profile my feminin side every now and then. For necessary reasons. Being such a masculin testosteronbomb trying to prevail other males by shear dominance. I sometimes need to get in contact with myself a bit more. And honestly, I didn’t really mean to race in the Girly Girl alleycat last weekend. I just came to help raise money for the good cause, help other people. And I got a big hand from the following friends: 

Together with all people entering the “competition”, the Spartaanse Vrouwen collected €1100,- (source: Evelyn Rodriguez) and the gay news was that I won.

(Weest zorgvuldig nu, volgend bericht bereikte mij via de interne mail!) Dus.. zaterdag 2 mei is er een grote alleycat met party achteraf bij Dings. Dus fakengers vs messengers vs exengers. Wie gaat er van meedoen van Tourdeville? Wie maakt zijn grote mond waar! Start zal zijn rond 20.00 uur en de koers zal zeker geen 2 uur duren maar wat korter dan dat  Er zijn werkelijk grote prijzen te winnen denkend aan Cinelli , Vans en Oakley’s… Geef je op via de mail, ook als je vrijwilliger wil zijn op een checkpoint. Koers, koers, koers. And more info/flyert to come.

Every now and then we have free wrestling evenings at Tour de Ville. Anyone who dares to compete with local bearback and Bam Bam Bigelow look-a-like Jepke can enter the competition. Broken collarbones, broozed ribs, wrecked automobiles and black eyes with dislocated shoulders are part of the deal when you try to fight “The Vreselijke Verhorevoort”. Today is his last day at TdV and I’m honestly afraid to go over for his final battle. Allei maatje, vollen bak, chasse patat and Crucial Sounds, Massive Respecta.

Pica shows how friendly guy on the left is obviously intimidated by bully!

Well, not exactly, but the idea is pretty good. Black always makes your appearance a tad more slender and the kermitish Frisbi green adds a distinctive touch. Myself, i’m not so keen about the orange backpacks anymore though to some others they might still have that retro-TourdeVille-down4life-style-look-feeling about them. A black helmet would finish things off but overall… great make-over, well done.

Prepare for the difficult while it is still easy. Deal with the big while it is still small. Difficult undertakings have always started with what’s easy. Great undertakings always started with what is small. Therefore the sage never strives for the great, And thereby the great is achieved.

Is da hippest place to be next two weekends! it’s got the opening of the new bikeshop of Jos the boss (formerly know as “het orakel”) van Veldhoven. it’s got the launch of Fixed magazine numero 2 & the European premiere of Macaframa! But, the reason to stay away is, it’s got Buffalo Bill.
