On the eve of the Marin World Cup opener Marin-Roubaix, Cycling News is reporting another bizarre twist from Cjijisters-Stevensteers camp.
Katie Hewsonstein, long-time PR manger for Markus Cijisters has sent a letter requesting a single speed category starting 3 hours after the actual Marin-Roubaix. While this has shocked many, PHRO president and chairman Joos Litvalk quickly dispelled any rumors.
"A single speed race? Is he kidding? Am I running a race for urban hipsters? Has Markus lost his mined? The PHRO will not support a single speed category for as long as I am President nor while I am alive! If Cijisters would like to ride a single speed in the race is up to him. To ask for a special category undermines the history and stature or the Marin World Cup.
Once again, the Stevensteers-Cijisters camp had "no comment."
