Took a day off from work and it paid off since the weather was a lot better than the last 2 days. No more gales and showers, instead a little bit of sunshine and dry weather. I decided to ride out for the 3 Meerdael Bloso rides. Starting on the green in Blanden I quickly found out that the trails were rather good. I had expected some mud but it looks like the months' drought had the trails dried out to the point where they can take in a lot of water. The ride went well. I enjoyed the technical bits where this bike demands a lot more skills to steer it through. No suspension, no room for error. In the uphills I take advantage of its light weight but in the downhills care has to be taken not to have the handlebar kicked out of your hands.
