title: Netherlands at the 2013 UEC European Track Championships
text: # Netherlands at the 2013 UEC European Track Championships
  
  The Netherlands competed at the 2013 European Track Championships in Apeldoorn, the Netherlands, from 18 October to 20 October 2013.
  
  The Netherlands competed in 12 of the 13 disciplines. Ellen van Dijk, the strongest rider of the women's team pursuit, changed her focus from both road and track cycling to road cycling only and so did not compete at the European Championships. Because Van Dijk is the missing link in the women's team pursuit, the national coach René Wolff did not send a team for the women's team pursuit.
