Another day where scattered showers ruined it for the bikers. I had to wait until after the Tour de France was in before the skies seemed to relax into just menacing clouds. My plan was to do a long offroad ride today but that didn't go through. Instead I opted for a road loop. I followed the Red Bloso road route which takes me over Sint Joris Weert, Sint Agatha Rode and Ottenburg to Terlanen. There I had to leave the loop because there was a road race taking place. So I veered to the left towards Tombeek and Overijse. In Huldenberg I re-connected with the remainder of the loop which brought me over Neerijse and Heverlee back to Blanden.
Along the way I spotted a few chapels and decided to take some pictures. Not out of religious viewpoint but just because they are what kept Catholic Flanders together in the times before internet. The loop I did is pretty hilly and some of the hills are of the short and steep kind. Nevertheless I managed to keep my heartrate well down with a max of 130 and an average of 105bpm. Not bad considering the average speed which was 23kph.
Ride Stats : 62K and 520 heightmeters in 2h41mins
