Sven Nys Cycling Center: The place for off-road cycling
The Sven Nys Cycling Center is opened in Tremelo-Baal, Beglium. The Center is the place for off-road cycling in Flanders and is located on the beaytiful domain Balenberg, where the annual Grand Prix Sven Nys is organized. The center is not a classic museum but an experience center where you will be immersed in the atmosphere of cyclocross: pain, suffering and all kind of different shirts. It is aimed at children, schools, tourists but especially for the real bike fanatic.
The experience center is the hub of the Sven Nys Cycling Center. Amoung the champoin jerseys you walk from one historical moment to another cycling victory. One can take a look at the camper field where the riders are preparing for a race. Sports enthusiasts can in a sandbox testing themselves how far they get themselves and there is also a possibility to test themselves in the Energy Lab that belongs to the center. At the bar you can expand your cycling knowledge via a challenging quiz. And after all that effort, one can relax and chat afterwards at the Velo bar!
