The weather was dry and sunny today but from the outset of my ride I noticed a very stiff breeze blowing from the southeast. So I set out in that direction with the wind in my face. Riding to Tienen where I could turn to the right towards Hoegaarden and then further on to Jodoigne. Here I turned again to the right and the wind turned from foe into friend. Reaching speeds over 50kph I flew in the direction of Hamme Mille and back into Meerdael Forest and Blanden. The ride went well and I managed to keep myself under control during the difficult bits.

Time for a ride outside. The weather is still cold and a nasty wind is blowing from the northwest. But near the evening the sun broke through . I rode out for 5 long laps around the Haasrode Industrie and a sixth 3/4 lap to finish off over Haasrode and Blanden. The legs felt good and I could keep my pace uphill. I tried to apply some power and the legs held.

Another ride on the Litespeed Vortex.Same ride as yesterday but did only 2 long laps instead of 3. Legs felt fine and seemed well recuperated. Did not do a longer ride to make sure my body digests the new stress from this bike and position.
