Our custommers Boyd and Arend-Jan took part in the 24 hour race Jan Kranczoch on May 30-31! They won the first and second place (individual):
Boyd cycled 382 (955 km) laps
Arend-Jan 351 (877.5 km). We are proud of our customers 🙂Both cycled in the Snoek velomobile.
Our congratulations also go to Matthias and his team, they cycled the most laps as a relay - 436 (1090 km). All this on a very winding track in Sloten.
Boyd says about his achievment:
What an experience. I have more than lived up to my expectations. According to my Wahoo I cycled 21 hours and 9 minutes and I feel: well, really tired, very strange. But it also feels very good. With 955km I have come significantly further than my goal of 750km and thanks to the fantastic support of Niels, Lionel and Yfke and the efforts of the organization and volunteers it was another great day. Since I was not so clear anymore and especially my knees did not feel like it anymore I decided to leave my bike at Sjoerd's for another week. And while I can recover nicely for a few days my thoughts go to next year. The 1000km or 1Mm is very close...
 
Boyd plans to publish a longer story about his racing experience in other media, which we will share with you at a later date.
