Dry and not too cold this evening so i set out with the Hilset for a recovery ride. This would take me towards the Zoete Waters and then to Korbeek Dyle where I rode up to the small tarmac track on the crest towards Leefdaal. Taking a left and dropping into Neerijse I set forth to Huldenberg. Here I climbed the long way up to the Smeysberg ridge and then dropped into Terlanen. Up again and I was in Ottenburg. There wasn't a cloud in the sky and I was anxious to see the moon appear over the horizon but she kept me waiting.
From Ottenburg I made way to Pecrot where I incorporated a couple of climbs. When I was on the steep one leading towards Nethen I noticed a red moon appearing through the trees on the horizon. At last. Down into Nethen and then to Hamme Mille for a last stretch along the Naamsesteenweg into Blanden. The moon was well up now and the red had gone, big and yellow she was now.
Had a good recovery ride at an easy pace. My legs felt a bit painful at the start but got better once I warmed up.
