Lots of rain this morning, and with all the humidity of the last few days added to that, I did not pity the organisation of the ZOenK Ride in Heverlee. They will not have had as much inscriptions as on a dry, cold year. I left around noon for an easy ride that turned out to be a little bit more than that. I had a flat tyre about 5K into the ride, on some broken glas, and when I rode towards the southwest, the wind was very forceful and I only averaged 22K during the first hour of the ride. But when I turned towards the north things all if a sudden became a lot easier. Blown by the wind I saw my speed going towards 35kph and I only needed to beware of the strong gusts of wind between the houses to keep that speed up. So it wasn't the easiest of rides, moreover I had quite a few little rainshowers along the way, but I went out riding and that is the most important thing to remember.
Ride Stats : 44K and 375 heightmeters in 1h50mins
