The TT virus is gradually starting to spread through Assen and the surrounding area. Certainly this year, because the centenary of the iconic race is celebrated. For Yolanda Visser reason enough to design a special TT flag again this year.

“It is in the genes if you live in Assen. Then it starts to itch again, you won’t escape that,” says Visser, owner of Galery 22 in the heart of Assen. Visser made a TT flag for the first time in 2021 and now unpacks extra in the anniversary year.

On the flag you can see an image Piet van Wijngaarden, who won the 500cc class during the first TT in 1925. For the occasion, Visser changed the starting number to 100.
