Winning the 11 Cities Race - With 24 hour World Record Holder - Niek Van Der Linde
This episode features the incredible Niek Van Der Linde, who is the four-time winner of the classic (and gritty) Non-Stop 11 Cities Race.
This year he added to his win by simultaneously breaking the world 24 hour SUP record on a regulation board rather than the usual 'unlimited' version used for these record attempts.
In this episode we talk about the classic 11 Cities Race, his experiences, his training and get the inside track on paddling in the Netherlands.
