COTY FBI 2012
 

This year we have COTY ON THE ROAD the INTERACTION SELECTION .So your bicycle have to do a cruise. Everybody gets a coty card with on the backside first, second and third place. And you must fill in the personal name of the person. So you must introduce yourself to the person and ask his name and perhaps something about his bicycle. So there is more interaction between the people, and you have a conversation with a person you never would speak to perhaps. On the Saturday we get your card back and on the end of the day at the Vliegenbos the Chopperdome have some nice things for first, second and third place winners. So everybody is in the COTY and can join the COTY.
