CHPT3 take to London Six Day

The Spirit of the Six Day – written and photographed by CHPT3 Ambassador, @garethwinter It’s been 40 years since the iconic Molteni jersey raced professionally, ridden to fame on the back of the greatest cyclist of all time – Eddy Merckx (AKA The Cannibal, as he ‘ate’ his competition). Why is Merckx the G.O.A.T? His versatility… no other rider in history can boast Eddy’s palmarès. Merckx won all three Grand Tours, all five Monuments, World Championships, track events, held the Hour Record, and he dominated 6 Day events with his partner Patrick Sercu. The iconic burnt orange jersey sponsored by Molteni – an Italian Salami factory – was resurrected for the London 6 Day at Lee Valley Velodrome. The Velodrome is built on top of the old Eastway Cycle Circuit, which Merckx himself raced on during the Glenryck Cup – 11th June 1977. Fellow CHPT3 Ambassador Adam Blythe (AKA The Captain) and 6-day partner, Jon Dibben of Team Sky, had the honour – and responsibility – of racing in the Molteni colours, bringing Ghent to London. However there was no pressure to perform like the Cannibal, and Sercu, this was about honoring and celebrating history, not repeating it. Adam channeling ...

Photo Essay: Il Lombardia the final Monument

Il Lombardia is the final Monument of the five in the cycling season and it is usually the last major outing for the pro riders before they take their off-season break. The ‘race of the falling leaves’ was a real battle that had been won by the great climbing specialist Thibaut Pinot who set a show with Vincenzo Nibali. But the real surprise was Egan Bernal of Team Sky who took the front of the group on the descent after the brutal Muro di Sormano climb. Now the season is finished but we are pretty sure that the Colombian will be one of the protagonists of the next year. Enjoy our photo gallery! Photos: Getty Images / Edoardo Civiero
