Lots of chores today but still managed to play outside for "an hour". No photos this time. Did get to chat with the guys on the bench at the end of the Rotte. Actually, I should make that a highlight :-)

Left the office at 6 p.m. and immediately jumped on my bike. Just under 60km and with this weather my legs are so happy. Therefore, I didn't take many photos. Just enjoyed having my hands on top of the handlebars.
Afterwards, I had to go for another hour. It was fine on the bike, but it's quite warm upstairs

In the past, Ruud and I have ridden a large number of classics and other tough cycling tours. Always long distances!
I myself had been cycling for many years before Ruud got on a road bike. In addition, I had gained a toughness through racing that you benefit from your whole life.
So I had an annoying

Last week, during our visit to Loevestein, I was inspired by Mare Liberum to go to the Maritime museum. Perhaps the most important work of Hugo de Groot and my hometown has played an important role in seafaring for centuries. You can't escape it as a child and I find ports fascinating anyway.
It had been

Made this summer walk with Paul, Marco and Bibi (dog). You only walk a few meters on asphalt and otherwise everything is unpaved through the meadows and nature.
I have often walked here and you can't believe that Gouda and Rotterdam are just a stone's throw away. Take drinks and some food with you because

As training for a Kennedy March, last night I walked 38 kilometers in the dark. Via the locks near Gouda into the Krimpenerwaard and out again via the Algrabrug.
In the beginning, I walked much too fast, doing kilometers of 11:15 or even under 11... I got really hot. It wasn't smart to dress as if I were

In our project Waterlinies, today Slot Loevestein and the battery under Brakel were on the program.
Parked the car at Slot Loevestein and first visited this fascinating castle in detail.
Known from Hugo de Groot, who is mainly known for his escape from this castle with the help of a book chest.

A bit of a gloomy day and I didn't feel like getting in the car. Nowadays you only do that out of luxury anyway! So, just a lap around our village. A large part isn't exciting, but the Hitlandbos remains a recommendation even with this grey weather!

Today to the office but the lunch walk was rained out. Was quickly done with it. Less rain in the evening. Dry at first, but soon it started to drizzle. Still a nice atmosphere to walk through the Bentwoud then. Soon we encountered no one else except quite a few hares and some waterfowl.
Just a great round after a day of work.

Mirjam wants a few light trails for hiking projects later this year. Both have good experience with Salomon but those were really worn out. I had already bought another pair myself.
When you go shoe shopping, you don't go by car, of course!
The weather was nice despite the wind and the Oosterhof loop is

We parked the car at Nationaal Monument Kamp Vught and visited the museum from there. Mirjam and I have seen many of these kinds of locations, but it always makes a huge impression. The museum is soberly and tastefully decorated, with many interactive elements and an impressive collection.
Because of

I usually go for a walk with @Paul on Friday mornings, but he had another commitment. He had asked if I could look after Bibi. This morning she was brought over, and I walked to Schollevaar station. @Ruud Muller also came there, and together we walked a bit through the Schollenbos. Then we headed home

Took a short evening walk with @Roeland. With 6km (Komoot is a bit too stingy!!!) for both of us a lap of nothing, but it wasn't about making kilometers.
Three times we sought the height: the train tunnel, the lookout tower, and the ski mountain.
Lovely view and we were lucky with the weather. The wind

By car to Neinstedt. Just outside the town there is a car park where our hike began.
Pay for parking with coins. This is clearly the last century!
Got coffee at the snack bar, but if you've been to Italy often like me, you'd skip the coffee. However, skipping this hike is in the category of deadly sins
