X.WA + LFR collection
As Brian Holm and X.WAs Jacob are coffee/riding friends since the last thousand, this Support Collaboration was obvious to do! Both the respect towards classic cycling and each their experiences with prober qualities and manufacturers made sense. Together with Brian’s son Albert (Team Carl Ras Suri) we hereby reboot La Flamme Rouge shop (external); Supporting the Cancer Foundation. Please go Facebook if you wish to read more about LFR.
Now stepping up with X.WA Superb Apparel to all caring riders meeting today’s request for HQ and fit. Still priceable fair.
The Foundation. La Flamme Rouge is a Danish association founded by former cyclist and sports director Brian Holm. The purpose of the association is to support the people who have been affected in one way or another by the disease cancer. The association has, among other things, organized several different sports events for cancer patients and their relatives.
One of the founders, Brian Holm, has himself had cancer close to his life. In 2004 he suffered from bowel cancer. He has described the course of the illness as the last kilometer that had to be overcome. And that is exactly what La Flamme Rouge stands for: The last kilometer.
the last kilometer
When the cyclists cycle under the red flame, it means that there is only one kilometer left and it is now that they really have to put extra gas on the pedals. Brian Holm has drawn a parallel between the last kilometer on the bike and an illness with cancer, from which the name “La Flamme Rouge” arose.
