🏆🚲 GOLD LOOKS GOOD ON YOU, NYLE!🥇😎

A HUGE congratulations to Fritz & Hawley sponsored athlete for taking *1st place* at the inaugural Plain City, Ohio High Wheel Race!

The challenge? One hour. A 0.9-mile circuit. 23 laps. And just to make things interesting… 30 minutes of torrential rain AND a lap of hail. 🌧️🧊

Through it all, Nyle stayed upright, kept those wheels turning, and rode straight to
GOLD!🥇👏

We’re incredibly proud to sponsor Nyle and be a small part of his journey. From across the pond to the podium, it’s been pretty amazing watching you keep rolling! 🚲👓

And can we talk about that Fritz & Hawley jersey?! 😍 Looking SHARP — literally and optically. 😉

Cheers to you, Nyle! 🍻🏆 Here’s to many more miles and medals ahead!
