The coming month I will be working more on the website. Last couple of years I had less time to work on the website. Also the other website about biketouring will be merged into this website. I will try to keep the site multilangual as possible. our biketouring holidays will start in Dutch and translated later on. If you have questions about one of the tours, please let me know.

We planned our trip and try to get some quite roads and even some unpaved ones as well. Due to the weather…
Finn rijd al enige tijd op een Ghost Powerkid met 24 versnellingen. Met de originele 8 versnellingen komen we af en toe iets te kort op de klimmetje. Het is mogelijk om een 8 speed om te bouwen naar een 9 speed cassette, je moet dan ook de derailleur en de shifters vervangen.
