"bad boy" 2012 Argon18 E-118

Challenge Wanaka 2012

It’s nice to have my first race of the year under the belt already and even nicer that I got a decent result. Considering the preparation and training in the lead up, I am very happy to come away with a 5th placing.

In the last few months there has been some major changes in my setup and unlike most previous years, I spent November and December in Denmark attempting to train in the dark winter conditions which meant I wasn’t completely sure how things would go. I also had my first few rides on my new Argon 18 E-118 bike which always takes some time to adjust. More >

Challenge Wanaka 2012:

 

Så kom jeg igennem års første stævne, som endte med et godkendt resultat, hvis man kigge på optakten til stævnet. Da de sidste par måneder i 2011 stod på en større ændring i min opsætning omkring triathlon. Og med at vi ankom til Australien i slutning af december med en helt ny cykel gjorde det hellere ikke bedre.

Fik dog nogle gode trænings uger ind i varmen inden vi tog til Wanaka, hvor vi var så heldig at Leigh fra EdgeWater og Challenge Wanaka havde stille et værelse tilrådighed for os. Så race ugen var i helt topklasse, med under 100m ned til Lake Wanaka, blev svømning og løbetræning ikke nemmere. More >

A Wish Comes True

It has long been on my priority list to get on board Argon 18 and Christmas has definitely come early this year. I am so excited to announce that in 2012 I will be officially riding with Argon 18 and on one of the newest most exciting bikes the E-118.

 

One of the inspirations behind my desire to ride with Argon18 came from my fellow Dane and former National Team mate Torbjørn Sindballe. He was one of the first people to think about developing tri specific bikes. His influence is part of the reason triathletes like myself, have such amazing bikes to ride.

 

The new E-118 has enormous customisation options, so I am sure I will be able to get an even better position on the bike next year. I now have another weapon in my artillery and excited to getting on course.

 

For short distance races and training I will be riding Argon18‘s flagship road bike the Gallium Pro.

 

I am looking forward to working with the team at Argon18 for 2012 and beyond.

A big thank you to Jeff, Peter in Denmark and Frank in Australia for making it happen so fast!

In more exciting sponsorship news, I have also recently linked in with SCI’CON Technical Bags. I am very happy to say in 2012 I will be using their Aero Comfort Bike Bag. With so much travel it is so important to have a safe and secure bag for my bike and SCI’CON bags are the best!

They supply travel bags for some of the biggest pro bike teams in world including Team Saxo Bank, Garmin Cervelo and RadioShack Nissan Trek.
