RAPHA CONTINENTAL BICYCLE SHOW Link FF

The Rapha Continental began in the US in 2007 as an antidote to the clinical aspects of road racing.  It was conceived as a more creative expression of road riding, with the belief that you don’t need to pin a race number on to experience the pleasure that comes from tough rides. In documenting their experiences the riders of the Continental created an inspiring online journal of films, photography, ride maps and cue sheets. The full crew of North American riders will be in house, along with their handmade steel bicycles, photos and journals, to tell tales of discovery. Free to the public.
