December 30, 2021,Lumberjack Gravel Ride - 2021 edition

At the end of December - between parties, good intentions and family obligations - it is at least as important to end the year in an appropriate (gravel) way. To make that happen we went to Zutendaal in Limburg for the Lumberjack Gravel Ride. A ride that really kicks ass.

Very much sludge. No gravel course. It is a pity because the organizers do everything they can to make it a pleasant and social event. When it dries it will be very nice.
