Bart Kleyn

The preparations for the Via Flaminia started in 2004, the first rally taking place in 2005. Initiator is Bart Kleyn. After many years of classic rallying Bart decided that it was time to combine his love for Italy with the passion of classic cars and classic rallying.

Previously Bart did study Molecular Sciences at the Agricultural University of Wageningen and he did a PhD in Oncology/Hematology at the University of Virginia. More recently Bart managed a small Biotech investment fund.

The first Via Flaminia in 2005 had 30 participating cars, most notable a Lamborghini 350, a Ferrari 250 and 4 Flaminia Convertibles. Over the years the Via Flaminia has grown in popularity, in 2009 two editions where held and in 2011 a Pre War edition was added. Bart has several classic Lancia’s, a nobel brand know for its technical prowess.
