Already 3rd week w/o a car, but I still have many options to explore my home region. This time towards Wijngaardberg. Passing Sven Nys Cycling Center. It is always wet and muddy there, no exception today. They added some new big features

The region of Lier is a desert for MTB, which is a shame. But you can still find some oases here and there. Especially in the winter, you are not harassed by the hikers.

The first part was along the riverbank of Grote Nete. They recently built a wooden hanging bridge. Then all the way down to the bike park at Ramsel. It is not big, but there are quite a few features. Further down south is the hill at Langdorp

Such a nice day, a lot of sunshine. There were many bikers. Looks like they were training for a competition. I tried some variations this time and found a couple of hidden gems. Overall, it was so fun to ride.

Many nice singletracks in the region. Also many variations. The ground is sandy but always dry. The locals built some jumps along the way; some are quite big. The surroundings are very beautiful. It is always fun to ride there.

First time rode this route on snow. It was much more fun. The surroundings were so beautiful with small hills and pine trees. Plus me and my bike were very clean after the ride.

Lot of snow from yesterday. First time I felt safer on a MTB than on a car. I had grippier tires and the ride was great.

Most parts follow the official route. A good combination of climbs and descents. The singletracks are very nice. They often sit in a valley. You can gain quite a speed - a nice reward after a climb.

Connecting the enduro trails at Winterslag and Waterschei, plus some very nice singletracks on the way. It would be better to have a lift because after a couple of times of steep climbing, your legs can't pedal up anymore. Still, I tried

Very nice region for MTB. Beautiful nature and very nice flowy singletracks. The weather today was fantastic, not too cold and with a lot of sunshine. The tracks are not very technical, but when you gain some speed, you will discover some natural jumps.
