  • Cycle Vision 2008

    I made a short video of Cycle Vision which was being held last weekend. The results are shown here. I will dump the rest of all the material as a sort of camcorder-dump at google in parts, because it allows maximum only 10 minutes per video. But this dump will take some time….

    EuroQuest was travelling from Rotterdam to Belgium and asked us if it was possible to stay a night at our place. Of course , for a Quest rider we just make it possible ! For all details, take a look at his wonderful homepage :http://www.klokkenluiders.nl/euroquest/index.php?page=20080622.htm

  • Bo Diddley

    Bo Diddley died monday 2 June in his own house in Florida due to a heartfailure. Years and years ago I first heard of Bo by listening to an Animals song called “the story of Bo Diddley”. That was the reason that I bought my first Bo Diddley LP (sort of ancient DVD 😉 )…
