showed the Indonesian market what was happening in Europe and USA , and that helped raise the bar here and shape “ the art of the possible .” “ In 2013 , our “ Ride The World ” campaign , in alliance with Kustomfest , saw us invite Roland Sands from RSD to join our programs with an ‘ RSD Challenge ’.
In the program , we challenge our customizers and builders to build a bike from a sketch that Roland made . In the grand finale , Roland decided to choose the 2- nominee bikes from Susanto ‘ Yayang ’ Gunawan ( 909 Hotmatic – Bandung ), and Siswo ‘ Wiwin ’ Winoto ( Win ’ s Paddock – Purwokerto ) as winners .
