The weather was great today. 15 degrees C, no wind to speak of and the sun came peeping through from time to time. So I got on my Hilset and decided to do the Ludo Dierckxsens ride , but in the reverse direction. This was the first time I tried this and even thoug I know it well there were two or three points where I had to make sure I didn't take the wrong road. But all fell into place and just past Roux-Miroir I wanted to stop for a little snack. I made a little detour to see if my favorite donkey was out . He was so I decided to stop there and have a bite to eat. There were some other bikers there too, also feeding him stuff. Looks like there was an organised ride passing . He was pretty fast to join me though. He had grown considerably since I last saw him and judging by the rate with which I saw him gobbling down a powerbar he will be growing a lot more . After that I just had to do a few extra loops near Neervelp and Bierbeek and I was out for more than 3 hours as a result. 76K is also my longest ride so far this year.
