1930km of fund-racing - Race Around the Netherlands
Job Biersteker
Race Around the Netherlands is a fully self-supported bike-packing race, over ar route of 1930km through the Netherlands.
Urged by a colleague, I decided to give my attempt in completing this race more meaning by doing something good for the world. Having had kidney troubles myself as a kid, it felt like the right thing to support the "Nierstichting" (kidney foundation), which helps people who need it now, or may be needing it in the future. As help can never be to early, I will try to complete the route in the shortest time I can.
More information on the event can be found here:
The start of the race is at 08:00, 27 April (Kingsday)
If you like to share in the suffering, the race can be followed on a live map:
(the link will become active in the days before the race)
The official finish of the race is 18:00 on Sunday the 5th of May (liberation day, how ironic), but I will endeavour to liberate myself well in advance of that date.
