From August 18 – 20, 2016

The races will be held at the dyke at the height of ‘Schapendijkje’.
Thursday is a day of practising for the teams but speed is officially measured. Each morning (Thursday, Friday and Saturday), the organisation decides how many times the teams can race. This amount is based on the weather conditions of that day. On Friday, the preliminaries take place. Saturday is the official race day.
