It had been a while since I did some road riding so today I took my Hilset out for a ride along the Ludo Dierckxsens circuit. Noticed they displayed a F104 Starfighter near the side entrance of the Beauvechain 1st Wing Airforce base. Of course I couldn't resist taking a picture. I remember when I was 14 or 15 years old I used to climb in the tallest tree in our garden to watch flocks of F104's flying over. Obviously, since then the amount of jet flying done by our Airforce has strongly diminished plus the F16's have moved away from Beauvechain to Kleine Brogel. Still, this bird brings back a lot of memories. Nice.
I followed the rest of the route, adding an extra loop up towards the Bercuit Golf course - featuring a 14% slope, who can resist that ? I also added a little climb towards Ottenburg. Even though I stayed well into LSD heartrates my average speed was quite good. Nice weather too, with the last of the rain moving out last night and only a bit of wind in the first 2 hours of my ride.
