  • rue du petit-chêne

    On the way back from Geneva, we stopped in Lausanne to drink a good beer and meet a good friend BLAIZE FELBERBAUM. I love Lausanne, small city with a very “chic” taste of frenchness and not at all swissness. For me Lausanne is not only ECAL or TAS, I remember Lausanne for the “À travers Lausanne” a race Contre le Montre, the Tuesday after the Tour. Was like a “red carpet” for the winner. The race was won by Fausto Coppi, Eddy Merckx(4x), Poulidor, Zoetemelk(5x) and in 1998 after a fantastic Tour, by Marco Pantani.

    The Depart was in Quai d’Ouchy and the Arrivee, after 4km, in Sauvablin but the Rue du Petit-Chêne was a breakheart hill, 200m at 18% in pavé.(…)

  • les enchaînés

    Today I was visiting Geneva and stopped by “Les Enchaînés” VALENTIN DUFOUR new store. He moved from Chambesy end of the year and opened his first atelier behind the Rail Station. I am really happy to have Cinelli offered in Geneva through him. So if you are in Geneva please stop at rue de la Faucille 7 and say hello.

  • basel

    Today we went to Basel to visit Nils at the shop Singlespeed Bicycles and to bring him a beautiful  Supercorsa Bianco Perla. The shop in Clarastr.11 in Basel will be the next “Maglia Rosa” store we will open in 2011. Michel and Nils will carry the complete line of Cinelli track and singlespeed  bikes and accessoires, the complete line of jersey,  t-shirts and caps by Ciclismo Totale. Last but not least the fantastic Chain-L oil  will be always available. Feel free to visit the store and take the opportunity to visit the Kunstmuseum Basel. Really amazing.

    So sorry, not on sale, its part of the store.
