Today promised to be one of the better days of this week. So with it being a holiday I decided to get a solid 100K ride in. Taking the Hilset BBW out for a ride along the LF6 Vlaanderen Fietsroute would yield me exactly what I wanted. Starting out through Mollendaal Forest the LF6 then goes through Bierbeek, Meldert, Hoegaarden and makes its way to the East. Tienen and Landen are passed and when I arrived in Velm I knew I only had a couple of kilometers to go to reach the 50K mark. Unfortunately the LF6 signs disappear past Velm and I had to make do by following the Haspengouw Kruispunten routes. Riding up to No185 and then following the route towards Kruispunt No184 I crossed the little river Circidia and stopped at a little resting place to have a crispy Clif Bar that would fuel me on the way back.

Turning around I had the wind more or less in my back which made for an easier ride back home. The weather was great. Temperatures of around 16 degrees C and a mild wind from the southeast. And dry. Had a great ride.
