1st RUN

we practice section by section. day#1 : Bottom section. first run i lose a piece of my kickstart due to high vibrations, second run i get off on "Engineers corner" straight into the trees 3 meters down ! i'll have to finish the week with a bended bar and a broken front brake lever...but no more crashes on the programm for the rest of the week.

RUBY RACING LEATHERS

We've worked with my brother Jerome and his crew at Les Ateliers Ruby on those leathers for months.
The first prototype for Catalina was great, this one made especially for Pikes Peak is even better.
Jerome came with a new design for the paddings, using Chevrons style padding, and defining
the upcoming Ruby's own leathers style.

i am very proud to have the opportunity to wear, race and test those amazingly beautiful Ruby Leathers.

Thanks bro, and David & Joss who helped hard till the very last minute.

GUMBALL 3000 x L'ECURIE

3 weeks ago, i received a call from Patrice Meignan, editor of Intersection magazine : "dude, seat down.....u've got a steering wheel for the Gumball 2010, would you accept to be our co-driver ? " waow, this is not the kinda offer u get so often. unfortunately i had to say no. An important photoshoot was already scheduled for the first week of may. it's sad, but sometimes business comes first. Anyway, Pat and Jey Noname are gonna make it just the two of them, and they seem to be ready to rule. check the Materialist blog to see their cool set-up.
