Skating is in the Dutch blood, everybody knows that! During your visit of the Holland Market, there will be a presentation about the history of this Dutch tradition. And above all, there will be a real live demonstration of the old Dutch "kortebaan" races, with several old Dutch speed skating champions like Lieuwe de Boer (bronze medal Olympics 1980), "King of the kortebaan" Piet de Boer (11x Dutch champion on the kortebaan and Frisian Skater of the century) and also Jan Ykema (silver medal Olympics 1988).
