Hello, I'm Ruben! Nice of you to visit my website, on this page you can find more information about who I am. I started my sporting career as a young soccer player at FC Everbeek and continued my career at KVR Overboelare, with whom we repeatedly won the championship. During my time as a soccer player, I used to ride my bike regularly in company of my brothers. It was a really nice time in which we often raced as some kind of Tour de France contenders. We battled for the jerseys and always pushed each other to the limit! Nevertheless we always managed to divide the jerseys nicely amongst each other. After a number of noncommittal training rides with the aspirants of Wielerclub Under Our Parike, I wanted more! As a debutant I took my first steps in cycling. As I still combined it with playing soccer, it was very hard. Nevertheless, I succeeded to win a race at the end of the season! Since that moment, I decided to devote myself entirely to my cycling career ...
I already enjoyed some great moments, as I had the chance to defend the Belgian colors with two World Championship and two European Championship participations. And especially, winning my long expected Belgian U23 title time trialling! By continuing to work hard, I want to grow gradually to eventually reach the absolute top level! Therefore I am grateful for the exceptional opportunity Topsport Vlaanderen - Baloise offers me and I'll grab it with my both hands!
