Dutch coach Johan Lammerts has selected the four riders who will represent the Netherlands at the Rio Olympics in July. The four riders have been selected for their abilities on hilly courses, the coach said.

Tom Dumoulin and Wout Poels will represent their nation in the time trial, while the duo is joined by Bauke Mollema and Steven Kruijswijk for the road race. Both races are on very hard and hilly courses, made worse by the expected high temperatures.
