It was dry but cloudy and a lot of wind was blowing from westerly directions when I rode out this saturday morning. I wanted to follow some yellow arrows on blue fields which I saw earlier this week so I set out through the Weertse Dreef to catch up with them in Sint Joris Weert. As soon as I got out of Meerdael Forest I noticed the strength of the wind and I was thinking this ride might get tougher than I had anticipated. The trail went over Nethen towards Hamme Mille and Beauvechain and then turned towards La Bruyere and moved up into the direction of Pietrebais. In the plains next to the Beauvechain Military Airspace the wind blew straight into my face.I also noticed that the clouds in the direction of Leuven were getting darker very fast. When I arrived at the crossroads between the N51 and the N91 I decided to abandon my arrows and head back to Hamme Mille. From there I added another loop back over Nethen , Sint Joris Weert and past the Zoete Waters towards Oud-Heverlee and Heverlee to finish in a light drizzle. With just a little more than 2 hours I wasn't completely satisfied with the ride but in the given circumstances I think I did OK.
