Come ride with us

Join us on one of our rides to meet with other Van Nicholas riders and experience the warmth of our community. A combination of gravel and road routes with a focus on the social side of riding. There might be some beers afterwards ;-)

COME RIDE WITH US

Social Rides

From August 2021 we started Social Rides in partnership with the Van Nicholas Adventure Team.

These are rides for road and/or gravel cyclists of all levels.

 

In order to create as diversified course, we will alternate the start locations.

Start of the Social Rides are usually from 10:00 AM and they last about 4 hours.

Distances of the rides vary from Gravel 60 km to 80 km, Road 100 km to 120 km and there is room for 20-40 people per ride.

 

Our first plannings have been made and these are the months when we will host them again, March, May, July, August and October.

PRE SUMMER EDITION | 27-05-2022

Van Nicholas organises with the Adventure Team a free, one day, no-drop, social gravel ride for Van Nicholas enthusiasts.

 

  • The perfect opportunity to put your Rowtag to the test, but you can obviously also bring your Van Nicholas MTB.
  • Explore the most beautiful gravel stretches in southern Limburg on our 80km loop, starting and finishing at Shimano Experience Center in Valkenburg, The Netherlands.
  • Get to know the team, see the bikes and share your stories with likeminded, passionate, adventurers.

 

We will meet up at Shimano Experience Center at 9am for a coffee and start the ride at 10am.

 

After the ride, around 3pm, there's a pasta meal to jumpstart your recovery and give you the opportunity to discuss the day's adventures.

GPX ROUTE SOCIAL GRAVEL RIDE
Saturday, 27 May 2023

Starting and finishing at the Shimano Experience Center, this route takes on some of the most beautiful and at times challenging gravel roads and climbs in the region. Get a new perspective on well known climbs such as the Gulpener and the Bemeler and test your handling skills on the occasional single track. With over 850m of climbing it's not going to be a walk in the park and we recommend tires with a width upwards of 35mm for a pleasant experience.

SIGN UP FOR OUR SOCIAL RIDE ON 27-05-2023
