Sunday, July 17, 2022 by B.W.Pretty nice route, some pity about poor state trails though. Also some greenhouse strips. Best is the start, long the leie, then it is less.

Monday, May 16, 2022 by C.S.Parked at De Pinte station, unloaded bikes and started at node 22. Beautiful route ridden on a beautiful summer Sunday in May 2022. Diverse landscapes with beautiful and often sickly chic villas. Very busy riding that day. Sometimes the signs with junctions are difficult to see (hidden in unpruned hedges...).
