About Ria van den Heuvel
Ik wandel al 11 jaar (sinds 2009) wekelijks met een vriendin, sinds 10 jaar wandelen we ook met onze echtgenoten diverse tochten, waaronder: wandelmarathon van Egmond, de 30 van zandvoort, bloesemtocht vanuit Geldermalsen, in 2019 hebben we het Pieterpad afgesloten. En in 2020 hebben we de Walk of Wisdom uitgelopen. nu zijn we bezig met het Kloosterpad, maar ivm blessures staat het even stil ('23).
We hebben ook verschillende Airbornetochten gelopen.
Fietstochten van rond de 60-70 kilometer staan ook regelmatig op ons programma, maar 90 tot 100 kilometer vinden we ook niet erg.
2x per week een bezoek aan de sportschool voor een lesje body burn en zumba hoort er ook bij.
Ook heb ik in mijn 'jonge' jaren gehandbald en hardlopen was ook jaren een favoriet net als tennis en badminton.
Door de jaren heen zijn we al in veel landen op vakantie geweest, o.a.: Schotland, Ierland, Engeland, div. keren in Frankrijk, Spanje, Italië, België en Duitsland (op de motor), Polen, Bulgarije, Turkije, Griekenland, Balkanlanden, Noorwegen, Zwitserland, Oostenrijk, Liechtenstein, Andorra, Sicilië en natuurlijk ook in Nederland.

It was time again for the annual autumn walk of the Orange Committee. We usually walk it together with Loes and Giel, but because we don't fully trust Hans' heel spurs yet, we opted for the 14 km (+ the way there and back). We had some nice company and because of all the chatting our pace picked up quite…

Take a blood test at the White House for a check. It was still early and I wasn't allowed to eat anything beforehand, so I put on my walking shoes and took a detour to the village, enjoying the beautiful skies in the meantime. After some of my rare precious blood had flowed into the tubes, I got some…

Today another Monday walk alone with Loes. Hans dared to take a walk again and went with Giel.
We were lucky with the weather, before we went all the water came down so we didn't have to worry about it during the walk😉
It was another old-fashioned chat and laugh walk. We continued our footsteps towards…

Because they don't sell Hecla Lava D6 in our village (for heel spurs), we cycled to 's-Hertogenbosch. But unfortunately we were told 'no' there too. To avoid getting on our bike for nothing, we replenished our 'wine stock' on the way back, because it is nice if you can offer your visitors a glass of…

Today we went to Tilburg for treatment, this time not by bike because the weather forecast was not so good. But we didn't let that forecast stop us and took a nice walk on the outskirts of Tilburg, without a drop of rain.
We were able to park close to the route and after a short distance along the canal…

Today at 7 a.m. we set out with Loes and Giel, because we wanted to avoid the worst heat. We went to Hedel for a cup of coffee at the bakery and strolled through the Maasuiterwaarden at De Hoef. Then via the dike along Hoenzadriel, where the temperature (including ours 🥵) rose nicely! One thing is certain…

Hans wanted to walk again along the avenue with nut trees??? After a lot of digging in my gray brain cells, it turned out to be the Notendijk in Mariënwaerdt. We also walked this route in October 2021, but without being able to use the ferry at Enspijk.
So early this morning and with good courage, I dived…

Hans had to go to the dentist, then another round of Tijningenplas and into the city where Komoot started acting strange. It really wasn't my fault this time. During a short 'shadow break' on the dike, I discovered that he had also taken a break in Zaltbommel🙄😁

Today I had another appointment in Tilburg and as usual when the weather is good we get on the bike.
I had mapped out a route with well-known and lesser-known places. And I can say that it did not disappoint. It was very hot, but most of the route was such that it did not bother us much.
From Vlijmen it…

Monday walk with Loes and Giel. Hans had a painting job at his sister's house so he couldn't come along. Good thing too, after yesterday's walk his foot can recover a bit.
Today we walked the Maasuiterwaarden on the Brabant and Gelderland sides. Beautiful stroll and back over the Empelse dike with a bend…
