Dieter Van Holder

My happiest days are often an outdoor adventure shared with like-minded people! My name is Dieter, I'm an International Mountain Leader, ok'ish teacher, mediocre photographer, I rides bikes at moderate speeds and my passport says I'm Belgian. But what is a Belgian anyway?

My inspiration and what drives me in the words of someone else:

"There’s this big word ‘flow’ that you’re always talking about. Not necessarily a trail with like… linked up turns, natural tables, and that sort of thing. But also, on a bigger scale, how does the day fit together? How do you make that happen? And on a bigger scale, how do you make a week of days hang together properly? I consider my role to be somebody who finds great trails, and puts them together in a manner that is presentable. Yes, you're looking for awesome trails, but you're also looking — on a bigger scale — for corridors of flow, through this network of nodes and edges. Through this network which we’ve been blessed with from the agricultural past and trading past. It’s all there; we just need to find the best ways through it.”
– Ash Smith.
