Tomas Bohumsky is racing as a junior this championship, but actually he’s only a youth. Surprisingly he was part of the break-away and finished in 12th place.
Felix Rijhnen won the gold medal in the marathon in Arnhem. It was a six kilometer lap through the city of Arnhem, crossing the River Rhine twice.
Marie Dupuy and Mathilde Pedronno were both on the podium on Fridaynight. Marie got a bronze medal in the pointsrace and Mathilde got bronze in the one lap.
A country that we don’t often see in inlineskating is Iran. The team is here with six skaters, who are they?
Erin Jackson won a bronze medal in the one lap. A lot of Dutch fans will know her because she was in the Olympics for long track skating, where she skated the 500 meter.
