Remember the Man. Our 5th annual Holger Bismann ride brought out sixteen riders. The classic 100k loop touches a bit of everything; the polder, the woods and the straight along the canal. More than that it touches the people involved. From the first Holger ride four years ago we have been generously invited in the Bismann house for a halfway coffee stop. Each year Windjammers veterans as well as Sunday morning rookies experience the hospitality, the stories and wonderful sugar bread. As a token of our friendship the Bismann girls were handed a framed Windjammers jersey with Holger’s motto Ride or STFU on the sleeve. A small silver vinyl print as a reminder to keep riding always, to empty the tank and to leave nothing out on the road. And to do all that with the signature Holger smile.
