LIMBURG - "MERGELLAND 2-daagse"

Sunday - 2nd day -

The route for today is mostly - 75% - going through Belgium.
Some roads are really nasty. Glad, I'm eating carrots.
Even the famous "Cobble-stones" are showing up in Clermont(7).
See images I'm shooting year around and also from this WEEKEND in the South.

I did number the hills - 14 - total today.
Height on the graph is given in meters - left is the start.
The hills in the begining are not so steep,but.... they can be mean.
The Hallembay(11) and Cote St.Pierre(13) are for the 1st time on schedule for our group.
Steady and steep.
