Fietsen in Overijssel (NL)

Varied ride in the triangle Lemelerveld,

Luttenberg and Lemele.



Draft 50% paved. The rest on forest paths, farm paths and (loose) dirt roads.



Tried my wider tires today. That went well on the road, better support on loose surfaces and grip in bends.

Easy trip through the countryside between Heino, Dalfsen, Ommen and Lemelerveld. Draft 50% paved; remainder forest, gravel and sandy paths.



Rolling landscape (to get rid of the hills in Limburg) and the last sporting splurge of a long weekend and to neutralize a number of La Chouffes. 😁

Short drive from Heino via De Colckhof and Den Alerdinck to Laag Zuthem. Then via Soeslo towards the Sekdoornse plassen. Then towards the countryside near Ittersum and then take the way back home via the old IJssel power station to Windesheim.



Beautiful skies and the last part colder than expected ..🥶

Short evening ride to kick off the last 3 tough and long days "at the home office".

Round trip from station at Dalfsen underneath the Vecht and crossed at "De weir". The intention was to take the ferry at Rechteren, but it was out of service.



The ride then takes you along the Vecht to Ommen. From Ommen again along the top to Hoograven and then curving down towards the weir of Junne… read more

Fantastically beautiful ride from Deventer towards Eefde. Rolling countryside with beautiful sand, gravel and farm paths.



Many beautiful farms, villas and lands.



There is also quite a bit of asphalt in it, but that did not spoil the fun. Hardly any cyclists on the route this afternoon.

A tour of Zwolle from Heino. Enjoy the vastness and the warmth of the sun.



Tocht takes 90% on paved (bicycle) paths and car-free roads.



Tour classified as gravel, because parts cannot be done with a racing bike. The route can also be done with a touring bike.

Round trip from Heino towards Wijhe and via Fortmond to Olst. From Olst towards Schalkhaar and then to Lettele and Haarle. From Haarle to Luttenberg and past Raalte back to Heino.



The ride is classified as ATB, despite 80% running on paved roads. However, there are parts that are really impossible with… read more

Tour around Heino. Via the Den Alerdinck estate to Laag Zuthem and then along the De Horte estate to Hoonhorst. The route back to Heino and via the Velner estate and Windesheim estate to Wijhe. Finally, via the dike along the IJssel and along the tiggel holes at Windesheim back to Liederholthuis and… read more

Varied tour in terms of landscape and surface. Getting off every now and then because of branches on the trails, clay or the loose sand of the Sahara.



Route over fast gravel, forest paths, farm paths and through redevelopment projects with deep tractor and dragline tracks.



During the ride you will come… read more

Beautiful ATB trip over the Sallandse ridge between Holten and Nijverdal.



Alternating fast winding courses with steep climbs and descents with longer straights to recover and look around. The last part of the "Henk Poorte" track is a nice ending; which my GPS didn't understand 😅

Gravel route from Stone Room next to Deventer. Tocht takes you past Wilp, Busloo and Klarenbeek to the Loenermarke.



Despite the amount of asphalt (especially back and forth) only suitable for gravel bike.



Pieces on asphalt through beautiful area with low-traffic roads.



The Loenermarke and surroundings with… read more

Short morning ride from Heino via the Wythemerplas, Berkum and via the Vecht and Dalfsen return.



Be able to take beautiful pictures again.



The ride designated as a "gravel ride"; although there is too much asphalt in it. Not suitable for touring bikes in wet conditions. And in all cases not suitable for racing.

Exploratory bike ride around Zwolle in preparation for evening rides 🙂 Also 100th route with Komoot.



What was striking is that the dike along the Westerveldse bos is not formally accessible after sunset, but the dike from Langenholten towards the Agnietenberg is.



Very nice route with beautiful views here… read more

Today for the first time compiled a trip via the Komoot planner. That resulted in a number of surprising paths.



The intention was to take some field paths and a few gravel paths from Heino.



Due to the recent rain, there was little "gravel". Slippery, wet and muddy trails :-)



The route goes from Heino via… read more

Beautiful trip through a hilly landscape. Usually on well-surfaced roads. Most roads are car-free.



Not suitable for racing.



You can park at the starting place, but there is also sufficient parking space in Vasse.



Start of my tour is messy due to problems with the app. In Tubbergen the route meanders part… read more

Drive in the border region on paved roads only. There is a small parking lot at the departure point.



The ride is often on asphalt, but on low-traffic roads and largely separated cycle paths.



I personally like the first 20 km. not that fascinating. When you are a few km. in Germany it gets better. Then… read more

Short drive due to the rainy weather conditions.



Ride through the countryside between Heino and Dalfsen. Not suitable for racing; suitable for touring, MTB and gravel.



Route on low-traffic roads and cycle paths. Beautiful vistas in the scenic landscape.

A Giant Roam XR2 with straight steer, hydraulic brakesystem with discbrakes and thin "gravel-like" tyres. I'll sent you a picture.
