An article by Olivier Maes, mentioning Camille Maes and Martin Maes. I didn't realize there is a clan on the Belgian mtb scene.

Haha, our name is the third most common in Belgium so it isn't that surprising. I don't race myself but I do try to ride whenever I can find the time, I mainly photograph other people riding.

Thanks for the link.I was in Houffalize this weekend and had the same weather,wasn't too bad. Omg,in the last pic of Maes it looks like he's running a 24 in the back.

Unfortunately I could only make it to the last stage. I'll do my best to cover everything next time.

I expect they're locals that's why they are so competitive, and you have to think Martin Maes is holding back to some extent in a race like this

@enduroNZ: Yes these are al locals, I do know that Bart De Vocht and Julien Soussigne have raced in Finale Ligure last year.

@enduroNZ: Why? A race like what? I've raced it several times and while it might be shorter than EWS races, it's seriously technical.
