Season 55 review

Written by Holwerda Cycling at 09:48 19/2-2021

  Last season was for Holwerda Cycling a kind of transition season. But let's start to look at the highlights:
  Derek Joling had the only win of the season at Tears of Dalani Pass and he managed a podium of Patryk Drozdowski Trophy Cup.
  Skyler Popken got a nice podium in Zürich-Bern-Zürich.
  Julian De Ruiter managed to get a second place in the GC of Germany Tour.
  
  The transition meant that 22 team changes took place with five retirements, six new talents and three big riders leaving the team: Dirk-Jan Helwig, Jochem Ploeger and Derek Joling.
  
  I expect season 56 to be much more calm with respect to the changes and we will focus more on results. We will try to get many points with Mart Diepstraten and Gert Luysen. And we will try to participate in every Top Division tour.
  
  A summary of the points (2250) and money (241k) earned:
  Skyler Popken 580 points, 60k
  Mart Diepstraten 390 points, 39k
  Derek Joling 388 points, 52k
  Julian De Ruiter 340 points, 40k
  Jochem Ploeger 200 points, 21k
  Gert Luysen 180 points, 13k
  Hannes Traa 80 points, 6k
  Wessel Clarijs 80 points, 6k
  Menno Smibum 8 points, 2k
  Marius Lemberck 2 points, 1k
  Mickael Bergkamp 2 points, 1k
  
  All time statistics (over 1000 points):
  Skyler Popken 4640 points, 500k* (new number 1)
  Jesse De Laat 4548 points, 555k
  Jacob Hagman 3086 points, 357k*
  Jan-Joost Batenburg 2829 points, 474k
  Tjeu Oosterhof 2498 points, 262k*
  Dries Blom 2364 points, 326k
  Bauke Achterberg 2310 points, 368k
  Dirk-Jan Helwig 2176 points, 254k
  Mart Diepstraten 2058 points, 256k*
  Henk Daverveld 1900 points, 317k
  Wessel Clarijs 1878 points, 207k*
  Ivo Warringa 1560 points, 145k*
  Julian De Ruiter 1150 points, 139k* (new in the list)
  Costantijn Snejder 1119 points, 342k
  Colin Willems 1032 points, 197k
  Siem Timmerman 1020 points, 95k

  Skyler living the dream, well done. Have you been all-Dutch from the start?
  
  Best of luck with all the tours!
