“This experience was like a warm bath. I have no other way to describe it.”(Goedele Wachters)

During the Ascension weekend, it was that time of year again. After 2 years of COVID silence, the chains were oiled, legs shaved, cycling suits slipped on and drink bottles filled. It was time again for the real work: Rain, hail or shine, to pedal 1000 km for Kom Op Tegen Kanker. 

We spent the year collecting money to participate in this four day event. Our Oh La La La wine and Rosé De Vlaeminck flew out the door. The wonderful T-shirts depicting Arno – who supported us for 10 years as godfather of the AB Café teams – now adorns hundreds of torsos too. To everyone who generously dipped into their wallet: merci godverdomme!

Unfortunately, the battle is not yet over and so next year we will return. We’ll be counting on your financial support again in 6 months time, dear people. And, another warm invitation: X/V unite! The over-representation of our affable male riders in the pelotons is great, lets even out that imbalance. 

See you next year… ❤
