Today the weather forecast called for tropical heat and a dry southern wind. It was right. When I rode out it was nearing 30 degrees C and there was a hot breeze blowing . I decided to stick to the road and went for a loop starting in Heverlee, Egenhoven and then going to Bertem, Leefdaal and Duisburg. Already I could see darker clouds in the far horizons so I turned towards Eizer, into Overijse and then made my way towards Terlanen and Ottenburg. From here I had the wind blowing in my back which did considerable good for my average speed. Racing through Sint Agatha Rode and Sint Joris Weert , passing the Zoete Waters and then again into Oud-Heverlee and Heverlee to finish my ride over the Haasrode industrial area and then along the Expressweg towards Blanden.
