Calvin Vlaanderen to MXON with Team Netherlands!
The KNMV has announced its riders for the MX of Nations in Red Bud. Jeffrey Herlings, Glenn Coldenhoff and Calvin Vlaanderen will represent team Netherlands in the US on October 6 and 7!
Calvin Vlaanderen was born as a South African but has Dutch grandparents, has lived in the Netherlands for three years and now also has Dutch nationality. After two consecutive second places in Maggiora (2016) and Matterley Basin (2017), the Netherlands wants to do at least as well. So reaching the podium will be the first goal for Herlings and co, but who knows, there may be more to it! In Flanders they certainly also have a strong MX2 rider.
Patrice Assendelft, general director of the KNMV, will join as team manager at the request of the riders.
