Dwingelder field run cancelled. Natuurmonumenten fears ‘collisions’ between cyclists and runners. Village interests Dwingeloo is furious: ‘This is completely ridiculous’

“This is completely ridiculous. Makes no sense at all”, says Jan Bloemerts, chairman of Dorpsbelangen Dwingeloo. “The argument of Natuurmonumenten, that they consider cyclists and runners undesirable on the same path, is too bizarre for words. Put up a warning sign for a few hours and the problem is solved, if there is a problem at all.”
