Led Ladies Bike Ride



I led a bike ride yesterday for local friends, it was lovely. We met at 9am and spent the whole day out in the sun, cycling and chatting, taking photos, eating our picnic and just enjoying ourselves. We also came across an outdoor summer craft market selling all sorts of local crafts, old books  and locally produced foods. We followed one of my cycling holiday routes, about 44km in total.

A short history lesson from Lise. The statue is in remembrance of the  psychiatric patients who were evacuated from the local hospital in WW2

Checking routes.


Enjoying the view, sitting on potato sacks !!
Lovely Eliza.
Beautiful day here today in Drenthe.  Eliza and I decided to check one of our holiday routes, 37km on car free, quiet paths, through heath and forests.















Eliza will be one of the guides on our upcoming Ladies Only cycle weeks.
