MAGAZINE ABOUT HISTORICAL CYCLING HEROES

Etappe is the annual historical-themed cycling magazine from KOERS, the museum of cycling. This time, #9 2023 of the magazine focuses on cycling collections.

Not only from the museum itself but also from numerous riders, family members and private collectors. Small and large quantities of souvenirs are kept by them with great care. Sometimes just to enjoy them themselves but also to share with the outside world. This issue pays attention to Michel Wuyts’ Fichebak, the silent decline of cycling fairs, Bar Gidon in Geraardsbergen, Scheerens’ treasure trove and Walloon cycling heritage.

The magazine is available for €12.95 in bookstores, KOERS’ museum shop and the museum’s webshop https://koersshop.roeselare.be/Products/Overview.

This tornado is sparking a revolution within the brand, driving Zannata’s ambition to reclaim its place at the top of the market in a short space of time.
