Today saw me back on the Litespeed Vortex for a ride on the road. It was rather cold and there was a fresh wind blowing from the west. I rode out over Bierbeek, Opvelp and Beauvechain towards La Bruyere. There I turned left to reach L'Ecluse and Meldert. Straight on to Hoegaarden where I had to be careful in the downhill along the narrow tarmac road. There were plenty of wet patches and with the skinny race tyres every little bit of mud becomes a slippery trap.
Made it though and I turned back to start the ascent towards the Marollenkapel. Down again and then into Oorbeek. From Oorbeek I rode to Hoksem and then up Hoksemberg towards Kumtich. From Kumtich I turned into the wind towards Willebringen and onwards to Honsem. Taking a right turn here I rode into Opvelp and then took another right towards Neervelp. From here I took a left taking me into Bremt. Onwards along the E40 to reach the Haasrode Industrie terrain where I did a couple of laps before following the Expressweg into Blanden.
