Biography
I currently bike with the Cycling Association Cicli Basso Vicenza – Reasons from Eindhoven.

I started with cycling in the youth category 5 at RTC buitenlust from Helmond. I’m a familiar face in the (regional) cycling. My best years as a professional cyclist were 2006 and 2007. In 2006 I obtained in the kempenland and podium finishes in Oirschot, Bladel and Bergeijk. That provided me with, in that year, a second place in the final standings of the Kempen classification behind Niek Basten from Hapert. In 2007 I won for the first time the tour of Riethoven and I equaled my performance in the rankings.

Groin artery
Then came the physical malheur. My body does not function perfect since a number of years. I have a narrowing in the groin artery of my left leg. At a high heart rate I get cramp in the long term and that is not exactly conducive to the performance. That one Wednesday afternoon somewhere in 2008, I can still remember it like it was yesterday. A doctor who looks at you and says, ‘you better stop cycling’, but I continued cycling. The doctors could not do anything for me. Perform would be impossible with a leg that function for 40%. My second profit in 2010 was emotional. I wanted to prove that they had it wrong end I succeed! That was a beautiful moment! Tears of joy!

Peaks
Since that time I try to peak three times every season in matches to really count. The tour of Riethoven is one of the hardest races from our region, you can not hide during this competition. 2014 was a pity, because my derailleur broke at the moment I tried to jump to the first group. The season in 2015 was not so bad for me. From the beginning of May it is getting better and I was in the tour van Lieshout, on stage fourteen.How long will I go through with cycling? As long as I still have fun and I am satisfied with the results. I’m getting older and that is also you have to learn to accept. I have limited training time because I work every week 50 hours or more, We’ll see!Motto: Pleasure in cycling and be satisfied with the results!
