The word ‘legend’ is over used these days; but today we bring you an interview with a man who firmly deserves the title – Mr. Rik Van Linden of Belgium.
Nicknamed ‘Rik 111’ – following on from Belgian superstar riders Rik’s Van Steenbergen [1] and Van Looy [11] he was the son of a professional rider.
Van Linden was an almost unbelievably prolific winner as a youngster and won the full classic Paris-Tours whilst still riding as a stagiaire.
