Nikolas's biography

Nikolas caught the cycling bug when he was 11, after seeing the riders of the Ronde van Vlaanderen pass through the streets of his hometown. Now he is one of the die-hards on the team. A versatile rider who is just as at home on the northern cobblestones as he is on the roads of the major tours, Nikolas is a fantastic team player who has splendidly launched Tom Boonen to some of his most celebrated victories. 2015 was his ninth year in the pro ranks, “my best one so far, because I made some important improvements, I found the perfect balance in cycling, got stronger and more experienced in the races. I am more complete, and next season I want to continue in the same way. I will be there for the leaders of the team, and maybe land a win if I get the chance.”
