First Belgian Ride

Just got the bike put together this morning by Inaki, the mechanic for Saunnier-Duval. He was also on our trip last year and is the best. We also have the soignier for them here too, Choppy. Robert and I rode down to get some cash out of the machine and then back along the bike path which included about 150 yards of COBBLES. Holy crap do those things shake your eyeballs around!! A big ride of 27 minutes, but a kid did run out in the road to take my picture which was pretty funny.

Everyone else is arriving today and it was raining buckets earlier, but the sun is peeking out so a group of us are going on a short ride in about 30 minutes.
