Maats Cycling Culture
To kick off the new year in style, we’d love to invite you to a fun day out with the Maats Community.
Imagine an afternoon full of thrilling cyclocross racing, Belgian beer, and fries with beef stew. Are you coming to watch the race with the most beautiful course on the calendar — the legendary sand pit in Zonhoven? With a bit of luck, we’ll witness an epic battle between the legends of the sport: MvdP vs WvA 🤞🤞
We’ll take care of transportation and tickets. The plan is to arrange a large bus that will take everyone to Zonhoven together and bring us back afterward.
You can board the bus in either Amsterdam or Utrecht.
We depart at 09:00 from Amsterdam Amstel Station. On the way to Belgium, we’ll make a quick stop in Utrecht around 09:30 to pick up the second group. We expect to arrive in Zonhoven around 12:00. After an action-packed afternoon, the bus will leave again at 17:00, heading back via Utrecht to Amsterdam. In short, a full day out of CX fun!
Tickets are on sale from 15 November until 15 December. If there isn’t enough interest to fill the bus, we will refund your ticket.
