My quote
"Whatever you're riding or doing outside of biking, do it because you love it."
»I am unbelievably stoked to sign with Ion for the next couple years, the team and the product is on another level. There's a mix of steezy dirt jumpers, fast trail riders and a hammer of a freeride team. I'm especially excited to be working alongside a good friend and a mentor, Nico Vink. These next two years, the whole team is going to do so much together and I'm so grateful Ion supports my vision. Cheers, TT.«
