This morning saw dry weather but there was a fog spread over the land. With temperatures of 13 degrees C it looked like a good opportunity for a ride so I took the BBW out for a mixed ride. Starting out along the new bikepath parallel to the Naamsesteenweg and then following the Weertse Dreef into Sint Joris Weert. Onwards to the Wolfshagen and then up to the Margijsbos. Following the ridge towards Huldenberg where I rode on the BLOSO track past the Kausdelle towards the fields of Terlanen. There was an organised ride also taking these roads and whilst nearing the Bilande I came upon a lot of bikers . Near the Ferme de Bilande there was a rest stop but obviously I rode on towards the Petite Bilande and the Noire Sapin Industrial grounds near Wavre. Tarmac followed by a narrow trail into the forest and emerging at the outskirts of the Noire Bilande. Turning towards Ottenburg next where I followed the Bloso trails once more along the downhill into Florival. The Hilset had its tyres inflated to 2 bars and the downhill had me bounce all over the place. Not easy to keep the bike in the right direction but I managed by keeping the speed low. Past Pecrot and up the hill towards Nethen. On the road to Sint Joris Weert again I took a right past the camping La Hetraie and the Kluis and took the Denteneerpad towards the Weertse Dreef. Following that back to the Naamsesteenweg and I was almost home. The ride was a little longer than yesterday and also a bit more challenging.
