After her parents' divorce, Lieke, along with her mother Emilie and older sister Sanne, had to leave Nijmegen for Hummelo. Her whole life changed without her control. Lieke discovered motocross as an outlet. On the motorcycle, she controlled a machine that roared loudly, something she herself sometimes craved. She became determined to qualify for the regional championship. This way, she could prove to her peers that she wasn't a spoiled city girl, and hopefully, be part of a group again. In her drive, she also encountered some obstacles. During the championship preliminary rounds, she discovered that being the best wasn't the only thing that mattered. Neighborliness, being there for each other, and true friendship—that's what she could truly win.
