Nils really tightened his bow.
Cycling 205 km in 82 hours is a very, very tough challenge.
Despite solid preparations, it did not work out this time, but as everyone knows… better listen to the string that broke than never tighten a bow. ”, Says Stephan Rimér, responsible for Victoria Days, in the press release.
Gave up after 67 miles
van der Poel failed to maintain the speed required to complete the race in 82 hours.
After 24 hours of cycling, he had covered 670 km just outside Vilhelmina in Västerbotten.
"Rest a little now Nils, see you on Öland in July", says Stephan Rimér.
