Biography
He started his career as a road worker. In his spare time he was an amateur cyclist. Allthough he had little formal education, he became loved for his down to earth Amsterdam street humour and wisdom and his never giving up, optimistic "bikkelen" (chopping) mentality.
Knetemann won 127 races as a professional (1974-1989). He started as a knight in the Mercier team of Joop Zoetemelk. His best year was 1978 in which year he became Word Champion by defeating Francesco Moser and won two Tour de France etappes.
Personal
Kneteman was very superstitious. He used to bear a horseshoe with him and was allergic for the number 13/4 (triskaidekaphobia). When he had the feared starting number 76/13/4 on 27 August 1978, he beated the favourite Francesco Moser in the sprint, using the 13th derailleur cable..
Kneteman was married to the robust Gré Donker (6 Augustus 1951, Krommenie), also a cyclist. They got son and two daughters. His daughter Roxane Knetemann (born April 1, 1987 in Alkmaar) became a professional racing cyclist.
Knetemann died while riding his mountainbike. He collapsed from long embolism after a trip with friends in Bergen on 2 November 2004. Although he was one of the greatest Dutch bicycle racers ever, his death got little attention, because of the coincidence with his by nobody expected death with the even more unexpected death and political murder on Theo van Gogh that same day.
Gerrie Kneteman — Manifestor with Profile 4/6
Gerrie Kneteman is a Manifestor in Human Design – the only type designed to initiate things independently. Manifestors make up only about 9% of humanity and are naturally independent.
The Manifestor's strategy is to inform others clearly and early enough about their intentions before taking action. This reduces resistance and allows the Manifestor's natural impact to unfold freely.
When Gerrie Kneteman lives in alignment with their design, they experience deep peace. The Manifestor's not-self theme is anger – a sign that the natural urge to initiate is being suppressed or obstructed.
Gerrie Kneteman has Emotional Authority – the most common authority. Decisions should never be made in an emotional high or low, but only when emotional clarity settles in. "Sleep on it" is meant literally here. The emotional wave needs time to run its course.
Gerrie Kneteman carries the profile 4/6 – Opportunist / Role Model. The 4th line represents the Networker: influence and impact unfold through personal relationships and a strong social network. The 6th line represents the Role Model: a life path in three phases – first experimenting (until ~30), then observing from the "roof" (until ~50), and finally authentically embodying the role model.
The incarnation cross "Right Angle Cross of Consciousness 1" describes the overarching life purpose and direction of Gerrie Kneteman in Human Design. It consists of the four gate activations of Sun and Earth (personality and design) and only becomes felt when one lives their strategy and authority.
