Afgelopen zaterdag was het tijd voor de eerste Bikepark ronde van de mountainbikecommissie. Een groep DM’ers ging naar Filthy Trails in België toe. Doordat de verschillende trails allemaal andere jumps, drops en andere hindernissen kende, kon iedereen zijn of haar eigen niveau uitkiezen. Al met al was het een geslaagde dag en dat was mede te danken aan het mooie herfstweer!
Tijd voor ronde twee!
Last Saturday the first Bikepark Round of the mountainbike committee was held. A group of DM’ers went to Filthy Trails in Belgium. The trails had a lot of different jumps, drops and other obstacles, so everyone could practice their own skills. It was a succesful day and luckily we could enjoy some nice autumn weather!
So let’s get ready for round two!
Traditionally, the Dutch road season ended with the NCK in Dronten. For the first time Dutch Mountains was able to send both a men’s and a women’s team to the race. The grand finale of the season became an almost heroic race in rainy conditions.
With Merel driving Polly and sports directors Lars and Lieske both teams rode a strong race on a windy parcours.
Lotte, Ires, Ella and Sophie finished their 34km race with an average of 37,3 km/h (!) and gained a solid 24th place.
Robbin, Dennis, Jannes, Christiaan, Peter and Thom managed to complete the 51 km with an average of 46,2 km/h(!) and managed to place themselves as 39th between the big names.
