Disco Down: racing in a club!

It was the eyecatcher of a unique event in The Netherlands. Last sunday almost 2000 cycling enthousiasts gathered in and around club de Radstake, raising money for charity. Joost Wichman added Disco Down to the program.

Never seen before in Holland: 16 pro mountainbike and BMX riders competing agains each other in a club. The time trail started on the top floor, went through the corridors, down the stairs, with a jump over a beer unit and finished on the dancefloor.

The audience was astonished about the skills the riders showed. It took a lot of guts, speed and technique. In the end Jelle van der Elzen won the competition. He was the fastest rider over two timed runs.

Joost designed the track and invited the riders. It was the first big event organized by his new company Thirty7even. More demos, clinics and ridingcamps will follow next year. And it will be likely that the concept Disco Down is going on tour.
