Shape bicycles jam - information

As we’ve known for a couple of months, the Shape bicycles jam will be hold at the Run trail this weekend. Organizers are busy, with fixing details on the jumps, adding a touch of style to the trail, make the Shape bicycles stand without forgetting the riders area. Take note that a BBQ will be available on Saturday evening, a fire will warm the atmosphere and the evening will be without alcohol; at last camping isn’t possible on the trail (lots of houses nearby), as a result make your arrangement outside the spot. See you at the Run trail this weekend : September 15th and 16t; some riders are impatient as we can see on the photo below…

Back from the Vans Kill the line contest

The Shape bicycles crew is back after a long trip from Brittany to the Vans Kill the line contest, which took place at Peynier this weekend. The event was just awesome, lots of riders from all over the world took part of the contest, and also a huge crowd came down to the wood. Everybody came to enjoy the beautiful line composed of 9 jumps, on which riders had fun for sure ! The main goal to this trip was obviously to deliver the Shape bicycles trophies for the ceremony. This year, the American riders were the best without a doubt; so Chris Doyle took the win, followed by Mike Hucker Clark and TJ Ellis. A huge congratulations to the Peynier crew; a report will be available on LifeTrail – Webzine, before here are a couple of photos !
