15 degrees again and cloudy skies.. mm, not very pleasant weather but there was less wind than yesterday, so I decided to do a longer trip. Starting out towards Neerijse, riding up and down the Smeysberg a couple of times through small forest tracks and then gradually making my way towards Huldenberg, where I planned to connect to the Overijse Bloso routes. Found some great climbs along the way, some of which I had never done before. So I was already well warmed up when I set out on the Green Bloso just before Huldenberg. The steep climb out of the Kausdelle proved no problem with the Moots - this is the only bike I regularly make this climb with - and I enjoyed the winding tracks when I descended towards Overijse. Somewhere along the trail I hopped on the Blue Bloso and followed that out of Overijse until it met with the Green again. I did not feel like doing the Red today, so I finished the Green.This had a very steep climb out of Terlanen, which I take on a parallel track instead of the Moskesberg . I felt pretty tired when I was back in Huldenberg and made my way back to Sint Joris Weert and Meerdael forest. A good training with some very steep climbs in it, and some newly discovered tracks which I will gladly ride again.
