BOMBTRACK TOUR D'ICELAND

TOUR D’ICELAND 2015 ›› PAGE 2 — 3
INTRO
The Rad Race Crew have been dreaming of cycling around
Iceland for many years, and in 2015 that dream has become a
reality. The guys of the Rad Pack were on their way round a loop
of Iceland, and with them are no less than 8 of our gravel and
CX bikes.
Their “Tour d’Iceland” is a kind of farewell ride that the crew
is doing for their beloved friend and member Sebastian (Aurora)
who died in an accident some weeks ago. Sebastian and the other
RAD PACK members started planning this journey shortly after
their “Tour de Scandinavia” as it was pretty clear for them that
this kind of cycling adventure was going to be addictive, and it
was time for another fix.
As Iceland brings with it a lot of challenges, these are best
illustrated with photos, as there are simply not enough words to
transmit this cold and hostile environment. In the images you can
almost feel the freezing temperatures, see the steep mountains to
be climbed, and the rough gravel to be negotiated, but above all
its the breathtaking landscapes that will be most remembered and
inspire us to one day take a journey there ourselves.
Thanks to our partners Gore Bike Wear, Oakley, Evoc, Clifbar,
Vitaminwater, Vredestein, Heimplanet and MyMüsli for helping
to realize that exceptional trip.
