Another easy ride planned. I set out to follow some new markings passing in front of my door but I lost them pretty soon. I later discovered them back in Sint Joris Weert and there was a 40k/90k just before exiting that town. Must look into that further when I plan to do a longer ride. Had a close encounter with a car - small delivery truck actually - whose driver forgot I had right of way and the jerk would have bumped me off the road if I didn't pull myself out of its path. Some guys are really asking for it. I hope he gets it soon , and I really hope it hurts!
I am changing my plans for the weekend. I will not ride the 45K in Verviers, instead I will do the Raid des Sources in Chimay . It's been a while - I think it must have been 2002 - since I had the opportunity to ride it and this year they added a 100K distance. This promises some 1800 heightmeters which would suit me fine. I will go to Verviers tomorrow instead and try to shoot some pictures while looking around in the expo area. That way I can go and pick up my entrance package and T-shirt as well or maybe get a refund. I will have ample opportunities to ride in that area later this year. The fact that it rained all day yesterday - making the parcours outright dangerous - also was very influential in my decision to change my plans
Ride Stats: 36K and 230 heightmeters in 1h31mins
