Had
to vote today so my morning rhythm was kinda upset and broken. Finally
decided to stay at home and do the nearby Meerdael BLOSO's one more
time. I have 2.0 Nokian NBX tyres on the Litespeed now, which make it a
little bit less comfy but quicker on the climbs. And since the hardpack
season is over and the autumn is setting in, I get more comfort from
the ground anyway.
The
circumstances were ideal and I quickly found a good rhythm which I was
able to maintain throughout the entire ride. No wind, trails damp but
never too wet, sun warming up the passages outside the forest, really
ideal circumstances to get a good ride in. Some people find the
Meerdael BLOSO's boring but I have ridden them so many times and riding
through the forest is never boring, just up the tempo and it becomes an
entirely different ride. Look around and enjoy nature, but don't look
around too much because the trail is full of little traps . With the
week of the forest coming up lots of people were enjoying the sun and I
had to slalom along walkers, slower riders and jockeys.
Had nearly 56K and 485 heightmeters and it took me just 2h30 to complete the ride averaging just under 22kph.
