The highlight of the day was of course getting to meet Graham Watson and have some photo's of the team and bikes taken. We rode to Leuven in the morning to meet him at midday. He trained up from Liege to meet with us. Turns out he is a good dude and really down to earth! He has a house in Nelson, NZ where he spends part of his year as well as have a Kiwi partner.
We had a bit of a chat with him as a team when he arrived and then got into it! Was a pretty brief photo shoot. We found a big statue type thing in the middle of a big square in Leuven which was going to be the backdrop. We got a few shots of the whole team with all the bikes, then the team with only a couple of bikes and finally individual shots with us and our own bike
The main purpose of the shoot was to get some good pictures for our sponsors. Most importantly in this case was Trek Europe, hence the bikes in the shots.
Was good to meet such a legend of the cycling community.
Big thanks to Trek Europe, Skins, Rabobank, Sparc and BikeNZ!
When we get our hands on the pictures ourselves I will post them up on here so stay tuned!
Cheers
WB
