Hi! I’m Philip Offermans, 22 years old, and currently in the final year of my Bachelor’s in Cognitive Science and Artificial Intelligence. Two years ago, I joined De Meet while searching for a place to mountain bike. It didn’t take long for me to realize that a road bike was essential to fully enjoy the group’s activities. After joining a bike trip to Spain—even though I wasn’t in the best shape—I was inspired to get my own road bike and commit wholeheartedly to De Meet. Cycling has been an incredible journey, and I’m proud to lead this amazing association.

Hi there! I’m Thijs Meeuwis, 23 years old, and currently taking extra courses after completing my Master’s in Supply Chain Management. I joined De Meet about a year and a half ago, but before that, my racing bike was gathering dust. Since joining, cycling has become a huge passion of mine. Experiences like the Ardennes weekend and the Paris-Tilburg ride have shown me how much fun cycling can be. As treasurer, I look forward to ensuring the financial health of our association so we can continue organizing such amazing events.
