2024.  Elisabeth was born in Viechtach the eighth of ten children born to Johann and Francesca Piller Robin  Black of Fayetteville; her sister Charli Blakney and Aryia Blakney and many nieces and nephews .   She had a true servant's heart and will be greatly missed.   A memorial service will be held at Rogers and Breece Funeral Home on Saturday The family will receive visitors prior to the service from 1:30 to 2:45pm.   To make sure his aging Beemer was up to the task Wolfgang reached out to Ralf Eggl at Woidwerk for a makeover Based in the small river town of Viechtach in Bavaria Ralf’s a master mechanic with multiple BMW builds under his belt—so this one was right up his alley High on the list were upgraded suspension and brake components, and more power. As for cosmetics, Ralf had a little wiggle room—as long as most of the original R60 DNA was retained A pair of Hattech silencers was added for a period correct look (and a better soundtrack) with Ralf eventually managing to eke 50 hp out of the old airhead—a useful bump of around 10 hp but the shocks have been swapped out for a pair of new Wilbers units And the tires are sensible too: a set of Continental Classic Attack Vintage radials and you’ll even spot a new leather battery box The R60/5 cockpit is now a mix of old and new but remounted it on modified aftermarket brackets There’s a new set of risers further back Capping off this handsome restomod is a paint job that borrows its colors straight from BMW’s iconic roundel The remaining finishes are refreshingly low-key: a black frame We have a feeling this lovely oldtimer is going to be around for many years to come Woidwerk Bevarian Gentlebikes | Facebook | Instagram GET THE WORLD'S BEST CUSTOMS DELIVERED TO YOUR INBOX COPYRIGHT © 2008-document.write(new Date().getFullYear()) | COLE PUBLISHING | ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Catering Insight Kugel Edelstahlverarbeitung is now a 100% subsidiary of the Blanc & Fischer family holding The Blanco Professional Group has restructured the ownership of fabricator Kugel Edelstahlverarbeitung The stainless steel product constructor had been operating as a Blanco Professional subsidiary under the umbrella of the superordinate Blanc & Fischer family holding company since 2012 Now Blanc & Fisher has taken over direct ownership of Kugel The new ownership structure is intended to open up new growth and market opportunities for the stainless steel specialist has developed its industrial manufacturing capabilities under Blanco Professional ownership The specialist for complex and tailor-made stainless steel solutions serves four business units comprising railway and is now a major provider of galley kitchens in trains Its project portfolio includes onboard restaurants and bistros for the Eurostar the Railjet of the Austrian Federal Railway the ICE of the Deutsche Bahn and the Intercity Express Programme from Hitachi in England CEO of Blanc & Fischer Familienholding explained: “With the purchase by Blanc & Fischer Familienholding Kugel now has a direct connection to the group management and can differentiate itself even more clearly from the competitive environment with its own business strategy.” Blanco Professional is currently in the process of rebranding to B.PRO as part of plans to reposition the brand Orica-GreenEdge man moves ahead of teammate Gerrans Impey delivers Orica-GreenEdge's second straight Pais Vasco stage win Impey victorious in Viechtach Will Impey be the first African yellow jersey? White: Impey earned Tour de France yellow, it was no gift That the moment happened in Montpellier on stage 6 is a remarkable coincidence given that in 2007 Robbie Hunter became the first South African to win a stage of the Tour in the same city “Sometimes all the stars line up for you and this was definitely one of those moments,” Impey said after pulling on yellow in Montpellier “It’s a career changing moment to wear this jersey in the centenary year and to be the first South African.” The stint in yellow came as Impey has been level on time with team-mate Simon Gerrans since the Stage 4 team time trial in Nice When Gerrans led out Matt Goss for the sprint today and subsequently finished in a split five seconds down He now leads the race by three seconds over Edvald Boasson Hagen (Sky) Impey’s tenure in yellow – which will probably last until Saturday when the Tour snakes its way to the first mountain summit finish at Ax 3 Domaines – will be greeted with jubilation in his nation back in South Africa “Everyone’s going crazy back home,” the 24-year-old said in a press conference afterwards “The team rode a great race today and I couldn’t have done it without them,” he said “It was so stressful and you need a strong team and we’ve really kept united and I think tomorrow we can definitely try and keep this jersey one more day.” Impey has endured a tough slog to get to this particular career summit he won the Tour of Turkey but finished the final stage on a stretcher after being inexplicably hauled into the barriers by Theo Bos in the sprint In 2011 he was set to join the Australian Pegasus squad but when that folded he was forced to rejoin South African domestic team MTN-Qhubeka That was just a stepping stone and Impey returned to Europe half way through the season with ProContinental squad NetApp said Robbie Hunter (Garmin-Sharp) has been instrumental in helping him build a pro career helped secure him a place on RadioShack in 2010 after Barloworld withdrew sponsorship “Robbie’s probably one of the most influential guys in my career,” he said He’s been carrying the flag for many years and I’m starting to carry it too But it’s been at Orica GreenEdge where Impey has blossomed In 2012 he won a stage of the Tour of the Basque country and got his first grand tour ride in the Giro “I came to the team as one of the domestiques last year and quickly showed that I could do a job more than what they expected and they put their faith straight away in me,” he said.
