OK, we are ready to go here in Amsterdam,

First of all I was glad to know that Dominik Kowalski will be present. He is and will always be very welcome to our contest.

PRO's

We have a minimum prize purse of 1,000.00 euros for the PRO's and 40 euros per PRO rider on top of that.

We will brake down the money among the first three places of each modality.

Besides that the first three also get a Delft tile as trophies. you can use them to decorate your backyard pool or hang them on the wall.

AMS:

Goodies provided by our sponsors and tiles as trophies

Food:

Three days: I changed one of the days to pizza to avoid tree days of Mex Tex.

Public:

In order to get more public to attend we will share the venue on Saturday with one of the most important bicycle races in Holland.

We have hired special light poles that will allow us to race until later on the day, so the idea is to try to end the contest on Sunday 16 hrs, allowing some riders to make it on time to their flights back home.

Schedule:

Friday September 4th starting at 10 AM:

TS AM QUAL
TS PRO QUAL

TS PRO Finals
TS AM Finals

Sp AM QUAL
Sp PRO QUAL

Saturday September 5th starting at 10 AM:

Sp PRO Finals
Sp AM Finals

From 1PM until 4PM
Bicycle race on the venue, we stop for the bicycles and go eat, and skate on the half-pipe we have on the premises. Of course you can watch the race as well.

HS AM QUAL
HS PRO QUAL

Sunday September 6th starting at 10 AM:

On this day we also have some time slack if we have any delays on the previous days.

HS PRO Finals
HS AM Finals

Important information concerning the camping site:

Using of the camping site is totally FREE of costs, just bring you tent.

PLEASE use the trash bags we will provide, DO NOT light a fire at any time while on the camping site.
Showers are available, toilets as well.

The weather report is good, Sunday being the hottest day but the previous days will be dry. I will keep everybody informed.

Have a good week and see you here in Amsterdam.

I arrived now from vacation and I wanted to register for the race into the pro class. I was not able to. The web did not work. Probably the server was down. What should I do? Am I still on time?
In the case, on monday from office I will book the flight.

Flavio, Wouter, Cyril ... I will be back for the race this year!!

I've spent 5 fantastic years in the Netherlands ... believe me, there is nothing like Holland and the Dutch on Earth ... lay-back / unorganized / lazy / stingy / crazy / windy / Nordic / Calvinistic / capitalistic etc ... and most of all … just give them a beer and they are happy!!!!

so ... either you like it ... or STAY HOME!!!!

ciao
