About riding in the Netherlands
The Netherlands is famously flat, with dedicated cycle paths everywhere, so wind is the biggest factor rather than terrain. The small Limburg hills in the south hold the region's few real climbs. Spring through early autumn is the usual season.
Estimated finish times
The route is about 248 miles. Here is the moving time at a steady average speed. It is a flat-ground baseline: climbing, wind, stops at aid stations and group riding all move the real number, so treat it as a starting range.
| Average speed | Moving time |
|---|---|
| 10 mph | 24h 51m |
| 12 mph | 20h 42m |
| 14 mph | 17h 45m |
| 16 mph | 15h 32m |
| 18 mph | 13h 48m |
Most recreational riders average 12–16 mph on rolling terrain in a group, and less on hilly routes.
