This video is about Race Around The Netherlands, my first ultracycling bikepacking race, 1950 km around the borders of the Netherlands.

    Race around the Netherlands is a fully self-supported ultra-distance bike packing race organised by adventure bike racing.

    In this video, I share my journey during and before the race when I did a whole recon ride of the racecourse in the months leading up to the race.

    The footage on this video was recorded mostly during the recon ride I did the months prior to the race mixed with actual race footage I took with my GoPro and phone by myself during the race to share my journey and experience and hopefully encourage more people to take on the challenge.

    At the end of the video, I wanted to share the perspective and testimonials of other riders who participated in the RATN 2022. Many thanks to the riders who contributed to this movie:

    – Cap 70: Kemal @kml.arslan

    1. This film features a superior brave athlete testing her limits, Sherry C.
      A cinematic journey worthy of awards for both the star & director of the project who happen to be the rider herself. Well done young lady!🌟 🚲 ❤️

    2. Surprising how much low quality food and bad sugar (candy = fructose sugar which for about 40% first needs to be processed by the liver and pancreas into fat to be stored before it can become energy again) is eaten on such an increadible endurance sport. Great performance though!

    3. Been watching your channel for a while, great info and great footage. Thinking of doing the RatN in 2024. Will be my first ever ultra distance event, not sure if I am mad or not. Might just have to go for it and scrounge kit to do it.
