Bike Racing

[Graham Breeze]

A great race today at the Ronde Van Vlaanderen.
Highlights on Eurosport if you missed it.
I have long harboured a desire to take the Bike and campervan over to Belgium and do a tour of my own up all these iconic climbs. However, the reality of cobbles, 20% gradient and wet slippery mud maybe more than I will enjoy and probably is not that aspirational to many.!

My son is doing the Liege-Bastogne-Liege sportive in a few weeks and I will be there in support - as fathers do.

But I am in Amsterdam immediately before (Vermeer exhibition) and, alas, it would obviously be just too complicated for me to take my bike over on the plane and then on the train so I could lead him over the cobbles. Well obviously.
