Residence: Deephaven, MN

Résumé: I’m 18 years old and I’m from Belgium. I did cycling for 4 years now and now I’m finally a `senior`. I love road races and my best feature is climbing and little tours.

My Bikes: my road bike is a Jowan-bike (Belgian hehe)!

How I support by Bike Habit: my great parents…

Best Time on the Bike: Probably my participation in the world championship. It was probably the hardest race I’ve ever ridden, but also the most amazing one! All your hard work is finally rewarded by racing this race.

Worst Time on the Bike: A race where it rained so hard and I attacked from the beginning and after a couple miles, I was completely under cooled and my muscles didn’t work at all anymore, I felt so bad. The 5-hours-training in the rain, wind and cold (yes that’s Belgium) where everything hurts, you can’t go fast anymore and you feel like it will never end!

My Motto: if winning would be easy, everybody would do it! It never hurts less, you just go faster!

Favorite Post-Ride Food: Immediately after the race a Gatorade or Powerade with a sportbar and later some kind of pasta or anything good!
