Sports badge special at the Aldenhoven Testing Center
Normally, motorized vehicles for the mobility of the future are tested or events are held on the test track in Aldenhoven. On Saturday, 24.05.2025, however, it was all about muscle power and speed in the saddle: with 91 pre-registrations, the response to the third edition of the cycling disciplines at the Aldenhoven Testing Center was, as always, very good. The weather this year was not ideal, with 15 degrees and strong winds on the main straight, but it didn't stop the best times being achieved.
