Francois_Dumas Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 ..... from waving ! Motorbiking Netherland was out in numbers today... as usual on first Easter Day, with good weather ! Although the wind was much stronger than forecasted, making it quite chilly, we had sunshine, and many thousands of bikers to wave to on our 5 hour trip today! It was fun. The Beemer purred, the intercom still worked, we weren't too cold, we had a nice lunch together in some small village, sitting outside in the sun. And we did 250 miles without problems (accept for the scare a young cruiser rider gave us: see 'Ride Well Forum'). The most significant thing of this ride however: I did not make ONE photograph........ oh my !! So, the solution? We'll do another one tomorrow !!!!! Link to comment
Tony_K Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 Do you think that if everyone got out and had such a good time as you did today that it would bring Wallonia and Flanders together? Link to comment
Francois_Dumas Posted April 8, 2007 Author Share Posted April 8, 2007 Apart from those being in Belgium.... I think the Belgian 'riders' are wiser than their fellow countrymen.... thay too wave at each other AND at Dutchies 'invading'... Link to comment
ESokoloff Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 The most significant thing of this ride however: I did not make ONE photograph........ This post is'nt @^%$#* without images I put 33.3 miles on my 1/4hp bike this morning & only saw one MOTOR bike OK, it's Easter & we have June Gloom. Link to comment
Francois_Dumas Posted April 9, 2007 Author Share Posted April 9, 2007 We'll correct that today. Planning to ride the length of the country and back (that sounds impressive, doesn't it? NOT if you know that we can do some 200 miles maximum in THIS country ), visit a famous WW2 museum that has been totally renewed, and visit our daughter in Amsterdam. I promise to make a few stops this time...... Link to comment
