Today the wind was blowing harder from the northeast than yesterday, so I decided to take the Obed out for a mixed ride. Starting through Meerdael Forest towards Bierbeek and then taking cobbles and field roads towards L'Ecluse and Melin. From Melin I set forth towards Pietrebias, having the wind in my back now. Checking out some forgotten trails and finding out that there was still a bit of mud here and there. Arriving in Biez and Grez Doiceau and struggling against the wind which was now blowing from my right. Reaching Bossut and then onwards into Nethen and Meerdael Forest again. Quite a relief to have the shelter of the trees during this last stretch of kilometers. I began feeling tired in my legs and was glad when I arrived back home. My longest ride this year - in kilometers - and with yesterdays ride a good duo.
