Menacing clouds but nice temperatures of 25 degrees C, even more, so I decided to ride out but stay relatively close to home. There was a stiff breeze blowing from the west so when I arrived at the Haasrode Industrie Terrain I chose to do the lap counterclockwise. This makes it 100 metres longer but also has a 5% hill in it, as opposed to the 4% if you do the lap clockwise. Also, care has te be taken at one point because you have to take a left turn with oncoming traffic against you. But I managed to turn my rounds without much trouble. Around 45K into the ride I decided to ride the lap clockwise for a few turns to make it an even 50K before heading back home along the Expressweg. This proved to be quite difficult with the wind blowing in my face but I managed to keep my 30kph average.
