The weather was taking a turn for the better. The sun was out and it was drying rapidly. When I arrived home after a 2-hour stint in the car, covering 39km - I was happy to be able to relax my thoughts and get on the Merlin Works 4.0 for a ride into Meerdael Forest. The forest trails were still damp but not overly so. It also was not very warm so when I got at the back of the forest I decided to ride into the fields and plains of Valduc  and Hamme Mille, warming up in the evening sun. The wind was blowing from the east which suited me fine because I was headign west towards Bossut and Nethen. Into Meerdael Forest again and riding towards the North now I was following the bigger forest trails, making good speed on moist roads. A U-turn along the Weertse Dreef and then back through the old army barracks area towards Vaalbeek. A last loop following the Prosperdreef and then turning left towards the Naamsesteenweg and into Blanden. The legs felt good and strong and in all I had a pretty good ride.
