After Niek Hoornsman’s terrible crash at the end of March, the cycling peloton held its breath and feared the worst. Three operations and ten months later, the rider from Wieringerwerf is back on his bike again.
NH Sport visited Hoornsman on Sunday. He made a training ride of almost 200 kilometers with his old club team WV Westfrisia. We spoke to the rider himself and those involved about the heavy fall and made the above report.
