At Huka, we are always looking for special stories and experiences from our users. Recently, we stumbled upon an inspiring post by Ireen on Facebook, which immediately caught our attention. Her enthusiasm and unique perspective appealed to us so much that we decided to approach her for a more in-depth story. Ireen was more than willing to share her experiences with us and we are delighted to share her story with you. Read below the fun piece Ireen wrote about her bike ride with the Huka Cortes:

Cycling the Zuiderzee route with the Huka Cortes

‘My name is Ireen van der Voort and I have written a piece before about my adventures with the Huka Cortes.

This year, I took on a new challenge with my bike, namely riding the Zuiderzee Route. A whopping 440 kilometres long. And what an adventure this was, in more ways than one. The weather (lots of headwind and rain), the variety of accommodation, the beautiful nature and the incredibly nice and beautiful encounters along the way with fellow cyclists, but also many passers-by who were very curious about the trip, the bike and the trailer. How often I struck up a conversation: ‘What a beautiful bike you have!’, ‘How solid it looks!’, ‘Well, you can cycle that route on that’ and ‘What a nice little trailer!’.

And it was all true. I still like the Cortes and it gave me that solid feeling again in that real Dutch weather with all that headwind. The Cortes kept bringing me steadily to the next overnight spot. And, in 4 years, I had my first puncture. How handy, that ANWB alarm service for cyclists.

Exercise and therefore health is so important to us

I do these tours not to show how good I am (well, forwards, a little bit 😊) but mainly to show all people with chronic conditions what the world still has in store for you. And for everyone in it, of course, with their own abilities. Exercise and therefore health is so important to us. Physically and mentally.

Do you have questions or are you interested in a challenge, big or small? I always want to think along with you.’

A sporting greeting from Ireen
