First ride 2015 - finally

As late as never I started the new year's cycling season - last day of January. At least not a month without a ride since 2010.

And it was nothing special. 45 kilometres past Vilvoorde and back via "the Zemstes" (Zemst-Laar and Zemst-Bos) and Haren into Brussels. Riding deliberately slow to keep the heartbeat steady around 120-125 bpm resulted in a shameful average speed of just 23 kph. But it felt good to be outside again and see that in recent years the number of winter cyclists increased. Similar to the overall number of cyclists in and around Brussels. Hope this has an impact on the ridiculous obligation to use these "cycle paths".

No GPS track or photos this time except for this one where I had to stop anyway:

Wait! There was a road here last year?!
