In fact, success was tasted last season posting 3rd podium at WMX Round 1 Race 1 at Matterley Basin and 3rd again at Round 5 Race 1 at Trentino. No doubt, the Dutch rider has experienced enough riding, training and racing on various terrains from the sand tracks near home, to loamy soil of Matterley, to hard pack of Trentino, making all necessary adjustments pre-during and post racing.

With soon-to-be 19th birthday, #172 has made impressive in-roads up table board against stiff and well seasoned competition. Firing on all cylinders at 2021 WMX Opening Round, the newly switched rider of Husqvana-SKS Racing sent clear message to all watching that goals are in reach each and every time Lynn goes racing.

Posting 3rd at 2021 WMX Round 1 Race 1 at Czech Republic followed by Round 2 Race 1 win at Lommel, Lynn pushes aside any imposed limits on what she can achieve. Most recently, taking the 2021 Dutch Motocross Women Championship– ONKW winning 10 out of 14 Races.

Heading into Final 2 Rounds in Spain this weekend followed by Round 6 at Trentino on October 24, there is absolute certainty that Lynn Valk will race to the utmost best of her potential, all the way to the Final chequered flag.
