Winnen is belangrijker dan meedoen.
The last of the winter walks are followed by several races. Of course the 24 hours races in France, but also races in Olland (O.L.A.T.), Amsterdam-Hoorn (L.A.T.) and Sittard (Unitas). Results can be found on the O.L.A.T., L.A.T. and Kennedymars Sittard websites. These are some pictures I took during the first months of 2002.
