I first met Rudi Van Herck in 2002 when I rode for Van Zon Honda and he was a truck driver for the team.

Since 2004 he has been my motorhome driver, he does a great job of getting the motorhome to the track and keeping it in pristine condition.

When I first met Rudi he could hardly speak English, now he speaks Australian perfectly !

When Rudi is not at the race track he can be found with his wife Sabine running Bakery Lemmens in Heusden-Zolder, Belgium.

 

Rudi is a great friend and enjoys nothing more than sharing his Belgian beer with everyone in the paddock !
