- WWW.BIKERADAR.COMENVE reveals plans for UK and Ireland distribution, and Warwick showroom after split with SaddlebackENVE has revealed its plans to provide its products across the UK and Ireland, after announcing a split from the distributor Saddleback earlier this year. Based in Utah, USA, ENVE said in February that Mohawks, its European distributor, would service all UK customers. ENVE acquired Mohawks in 2025 in a move to strengthen its distribution strategy across Europe. Now, ENVE says it will be fully active across the UK and Ireland with a locally based leadership team, infrastructure, and support services designed to deliver bestinclass product availability, technical expertise, and retail partnership. ENVE's new Foundation AR40s reaffirm commitment to value wheelsets and hookless rims As part of its commitment to the UK, ENVE says it will open a permanent office and showroom in Warwick, which will open in May. It will also have a UK-based warehouse and in-house technical and warranty support, alongside field-based sales managers. Jamie Mitchell has been appointed general manager of Mohawks UK, bringing more than 25 years of experience in the cycling industry, having worked at brands such as Rapha and MAAP. Mitchell says: This marks a significant step forward for ENVE in the UK and Ireland. We are investing properly in people, infrastructure, and local expertise to ensure these markets receive a level of service that truly reflects the quality of the ENVE brand. Michael Stimola, CEO of ENVE, says: Were proud of the progress were making to better serve and support our UK and Irish dealers and customers. Expanding our presence in these key markets with dedicated operations, warranty, and sales support, alongside a permanent showroom, is an important step in ensuring ENVE is represented in the way we expect and our partners deserve. ENVEs in-house operations signal the end of its relationship with Saddleback after 15 years.This is not the first brand Saddleback has lost in recent times, with Cannondale announcing its departure from the Yate-based distributor in March.0 Comments 0 Shares 3 ViewsPlease log in to like, share and comment!

- INRNG.COMAllusions, Illusions and Delusions in the ArdennesEvery year riders say they want to target the Ardennes races, this period of racing in late April with hilly races in Belgium and beyond. Its a trap.First a geography lesson in pedantry. The Ardennes is a label applied to a series of hilly races in late April spanning from the Brabantse Pijl to Lige-Bastogne-Lige with the Amstel Gold Race and todays Flche Wallonne along the way. How many are actually in lArdenne?One, Lige-Bastogne-Lige. The map above comes from ardennebelge.be and you can see Bastogne in the middle on the right. Lige though sits outside to the north. But another site writes the Ardennes is a land of nuances. Its borders are always fluid and you can argue Lige and Huy are gateways to lArdenne and so the Flche dabbles with the border area, especially early today around Esneux.All this is fine in a heuristic sense. Cycling insiders know what the Ardennes means, its become a catch-all label for the races in a similar part of the world at a similar time of year. Geographical imprecision is normal, take the five Monuments: Milan-Sanremo doesnt start in Milan any more; the Tour of Flanders doesnt tour Flanders, Paris-Roubaix starts in Compigne and Il Lombardia, formerly the Tour of Lombardia, only ever visits three of the 12 provinces of Lombardy these days. Lige-Bastogne-Lige is the most honestly named Monument.Embed from Getty ImagesThose riders that are too light for the cobbled classics can find terrain to suit here and something to aim for, just as the cobbled classics specialists get their races earlier this month. Google the phrase briller dans les Ardennes and you get a stream of riders hoping to shine in the Ardennes that goes back as far as the internet.But its a very difficult goal. For starters were talking about four races whereas the cobble specialists get many more with the likes of Le Samyn, Dwars door Vlaanderen, the E3 and plenty more. Even if this window expands to include the Tour of the Basque Country its still an evanescent moment in the calendar. By contrast among these cobbled races theres variety, the Ronde van Vlaanderen for example is culturally a highlight of this cobbled season but has so many climbs now that it excludes plenty of cobbled specialists. The average weight of this years podium was under 70kg. Now its hardly a climbers paradise but the point is that riders thinking of the Ardennes could tag the Ronde too. Romain Grgoire has done just this year.Otherwise the Ardennes is a tiny part of the calendar to hang spring hopes on. Right now Matteo Jorgenson makes a cruel illustration as he put his focus on these races only to break a collarbone in the Amstel last Sunday. Now anyone can target a grand tour and leave in the first week too; its more that targetting these races means aiming at just four races or in the case of Jorgenson three as he didnt do the Pijl. Even if he was left unharmed in the Amstel its a tiny window, a spyhole in the calendar. Nevermind Jorgenson as every year plenty aim for the same.Embed from Getty ImagesStill targetting the Ardennes races has made increasing sense, these races increasingly reward similar riders. The Amstel has evolved over the years to become hillier. It used to finish in Maastricht and was open to sprinters like Erik Zabel, Johan Museeuw and Olaf Ludwig (pictured).Similarly the Flche Wallonne may feel like the most scripted race of the season with its uphill finish that has seen a bunch sprint every time since 2004. Well never know if Mauri Vansevenant could have broken the run in 2020 when he had a good lead with 10km to go only to crashed into a bank of stinging nettles. The Scheldeprijs by contrast has had more tactical variety this century. But it wasnt always this way. The idea of the Flche Wallonne was to from cross one side of Wallonia to the other, a direct line across the map or a giant arrow, hence the name, the Walloon Arrow. Its been hilly because of geography but most editions have had a flat finish.Today its defined by the vicious Mur finish and rather than an arrow it has almost become a circuit race where the start location varies but sees the race defined by laps around Huy. Huy is a settled point but this owes itself to a historical accident.In the early 1980s the race was owned by Tho Van Griethuysen, a publisher known for his newspaper Le Sportif 70 which became Le Sportif 80 magazine. He was looking for a new place to host the finish. One day he was driving along the Meuse valley when his car broke down. He called a local hotel and stayed overnight at the Hotel du Fort which belonged to a friend while his car was being repaired. One thing led to another, the hotel owner called over the mayor and talks began and the race finished in Huy. Two years later the Chemin des Chapelles was picked for the finish and soon branded le Mur de Huy, the wall of Huy.It begs the question, would todays finish up the Mur exist if a car part hadnt failed one day in 1982?Race photos: ASO/Thomas Maheux + Gatan FlammeThe post Allusions, Illusions and Delusions in the Ardennes first appeared on The Inner Ring.0 Comments 0 Shares 50 Views
