Distance: 84 km
Elevation: 485 m
Duration: 4:29 h
Weather: very sunny but cold, 8 C
Today started very close to the center of the Netherlands!
And from there the day took a turn for the better. Cycling through forests and heathers (although without flowers… who knows when those things are flowering?)
On this log in the sun I had my second breakfast …
… and shortly after I even found this dixi in the middle of the nature…
… not too far actually from my lunch (pannekoeken). Because in this area of the Hoge Velowe there aren’t a lot of villages nor a lot of places to eat. So Hoenderloo was the obvious place where to have lunch. And actually I arrived there just before 13:00, so also good timing. I even had time to dial in for a few minutes to a zoom call, that my Tokyo cycling friends has organized and saw a few of them. Hoping to see them in person in the next months!
After lunch the hills waited, but actually it wasn’t as strenuous s as I had feared. Somehow yesterday seemed harder. Although today I actually made a bit more elevation. Not hugely more though.
I actually don’t have any photo of a hill, so you need to take the Strava data as proof. Instead I have pictures of flat landscapes:
Partially the ride came through an area where I had organized a 2 day ride last year summer.
