nasty coble stone road.....



Home just in time, raining now, so might as well run a hot BATH   :cheerleader:    (sorry, no photo's......)

That burger looks deee-licious! Is that hard boiled egg slices, and pineapple that I see in there??

Looks like an enjoyable ride!

Cool pics, nice looking burger, and a very unusual looking bridge!  Partial to your model VFR too.   :biggrin:

So is that known as the "Royale with cheese" in Europe, because of the metric system?   :laughing6-hehe:

where was that photo of the bailey bridge taken?

i swear i was just there last weekend, taking the scenic route back from the eifel.

edit: if this is the one - http://maps.google.n...4,0.033023&z=16 , then i was definitely there, randomly, two sundays ago.  interesting... but those cobblestones were murder.

Yes that is the place.  


I was looking for a destination to ride to yesterday and checked the rain forecast www.buienradar.nl  

it looked like this general area would not have rain at the projected time I'd be there, so when I saw a town called Balen I put that in my Garmin+avoid motorways :-)

Thank you for sharing

we were coming back from farther south yesterday and there were definitely pockets of rather heavy rain that we bumped into.  you did well to avoid them.
