Rode the trails at the Schadijksen Bossen again with Joe, simply brilliant ...
And because we haven't had enough of it, we went to the trails around Overloon!
Thanks to Gladis and Benni, who inspired us with their last Overloon tour!

That was a super cool tour completely in my comfort zone. 10% more roots would be really cool, but this way you can prepare yourself very well for a visit to the bike park in terms of condition and riding technique. At least as a beginner. Was cool to ride with the boys again thanks!
