Took
a recovery ride along Hoegaarden, Jodoigne, Dongelberg, Longueville and
Grez-Doiceau today. Lots of wind but temps around 25 degrees made the
ride yet pretty enjoyable. It had rained considerably last evening so I
will wait a few days before going offroad again.
Ride Stats : 72K and 495 heightmeters in 3h15mins
6084/55970
Yesterday
and today I helped my club prepare the Belgian CrossCountry
Championships which will take place this weekend in the Bois des Reves
at Ottignies Louvain-la-Neuve. The circuit is most demanding and will
surely reward the most complete mountainbikers with the National Title.
The track is 6.25km long and has 280 heightmeters in it. That means
that the Elite riders - who have to do 7 laps - will cover some 43K and
a stunning 1960 heightmeters. The height profile of one lap can be
found HERE, and THIS is a map of the circuit done with Google Earth. All relevant information can be found HERE. I
will be around Saturday and Sunday, as a signaleur at the top of a long
climb - called "la Piste de Ski". This place is also ideal for me to be
taking some pictures. Hope to see you there.
