Or trying to. Thats what I wanted to do today. I head out for the region south of the Bois de Bercuit to do some recon of the possibilities to pass there with the track for the Belgian (and Dutch) Championships Mountainbike Marathon . Saturday I had less time to explore all possibilities but today I checked every little trail. And the result was disappointing. I made little map of the area where you can see which areas are private and which tracks are passable, but with a price to pay.
One track is only for walkers, and includes a heavy iron gate.. So having a race pass there.. I don't think so. The other one is the track going down from east to west next to and then in to the forest. I take this one when I do the Accro Bike. It only has one disadvantage ; there is a bit of mud at its lowest part. Today it was almost ride-able but I still had to walk a few metres. Well, thats the input I also gave to the track responsables in our club, lets see what they come up with
The Merlin proved once again to be a great bike, even for terrain like this it brings extra comfort and also some extra speed in the climbs and downhills. Although I took it easy today, legs still a bit grilled from last weekends' rides.
