"Van den Berg literally means 'from the mountain'"

Julius van den Berg (EF Education-EasyPost): "Van den Berg literally means ‘from the mountain’. I don’t know which mountain in Holland, maybe Amerongseberg… My name is right at the moment! I didn't know if I would be allowed to go but the team manager said it would be a good idea to try and do the same as Maggie [Cort Nielsen] in the Tour, to get the polka-dot jersey in your home country. That’s something really cool. Tomorrow we go through the town where I live, so that’s really special."
