350 riders from 20 countries

On Monday 3 February, registration for the 58th edition of the European Junior Cycling Tour Assen began. We already have 350 participants from 20 different countries. Half of them were not on the start list last year: lots of new faces!

The largest group is the British (127), with especially a large delegation from Wales. It is also nice to see an increasing number of French: from two riders two years ago to already 12 this year. The enthusiasm is spreading fast and we really like that.

Our participants come from far and wide, again: from California, USA to Australia, Hong Kong and South Africa. We also see a lot of nieuwelingen-girls (U17) this year. Unfortunately, both junior categories lag far behind with only 13 women and 17 men.

Registration in most youth categories is going very fast.

Category 1: 70% full
Category 3: 75% full
Category 4: 75% full
Category 5: 85% full
Category 6: 65% full

So don’t wait too long and register.

The registration fee per participant is €130. Camping costs €160 for a camper, caravan or large tent and €100 for a small tent. Added to this is the tourist tax of the municipality of Assen, which is not yet known but must be paid on site. Book the campsite here.
