Distances: 200 km
Difficulty: Moderate terrain with rolling short steep hills or moderate, sustained climbs

After organizing various certifications from South Holland for several years, Mart has indicated that he will stop organizing certifications after this certification.

The ride goes to Vlaardingen and there through the Benelux tunnel. We then cycle across the island of Voorne-Putten to the Heinenoordtunnel with a climb of 6.8%. After the descent we take the bicycle tunnel. After the Heinenoordtunnel you cycle to the Kiltunnel via the island of Dordrecht to the Moerdijkbrug, but before that we first have the first Check at the Shell gas station for a stamp or photo.

After the Moerdijk Bridge you are in the beautiful Brabant country with quite a few kilometers to go before we cycle past the namesake of this brevet, the Mark river. Halfway through the certificate, control two is at the Capuchin Monastery in Hoogstraten. If you want to eat a good meal, it is in the building. Outside around the corner of the building there is a cafeteria for a tasty snack.

After this check we cycle further along the Mark and you arrive in Breda. The route is largely around the city. The ride continues to Terheiden and there is Control three. Take a photo of the church. Opposite is a cafeteria.

Now to Dordrecht where there is a route to the Dordse bridge over the old Maas along the A16 to Rotterdam. The route goes through the city to the Erasmus Bridge, past the Euromast to Schiedam and Vlaardingen and then the finish in Maasland.
