Last Saturday the Rad Race Last(wo)man Standing marked the beginning of the new season 2017 for the 8bar team and some of our 8bar rookies. It was exciting, nerve-wracking, emotional, but all in all a great success and big fun as usual.

  Although it is still winter and the season is just about to start, the first race in 2017 just happened last weekend. It was a Rad Race Lastman and Lastwoman Standing that took place in a very special venue: The famous Velodrom Berlin as a part of the official program of Six Day Berlin.

With the 8bar Crit 2016 we brought together many local riders – many that participated in their first race ever – and international, experienced racer as well as spectators and fans of the fixed gear scene. It was one of the biggest fixed gear crits ever happened in Germany so far.

For many the Red Hook Criterium in Barcelona is a highlight itself. It was the fourth year David Trimble brought it out to the “Parc del Fòrum” close to the beach side. We went with six 8bar team riders and five 8bar Rookies and looked forward to race the new designed course, that seemed to be even faster then in 2015.

The 8bar team joined the official track day offered by Red Hook Criterium on Thursay at Velòdrom d’Horta and had a lot of fun.

It was the third year in a row that the Rad Race took over the Heidbergring in Geestacht. The 8bar team raced again on the podium.

For the second time the “Rad Race Fixed42 worldchampionships” took place on the streets of Berlin. 500 riders from 27 nations raced for the unofficial title of the fastest fixed gear rider. With Maxe Faschina and Carla Nafria De Miguel the 8bar team made it on the podium two times and became 4th in team ranking.

This year 8bar will put up the 8bar Crit for you on our beloved Tempelhofer Feld. So better mark Saturday, 24th of September red in your calendar now, so you not gonna miss this spectacle!

What a race, what an event! The 8bar team and 8bar rookies had a blast at the Rad Race Last Man Standing – Berlin last weekend. The race was well organized and the crowd was amazing.
