... if you swap countries, you often swap the names of the major landmarks as well. 🤓 So today we did a small, but all the finer round on a truly beautiful body of water. Yes, the Meuse exerts its dominant influence on the surrounding area. Here on the part of the Meuse, the tributary of the Rhine is still …

The car left in Steyl in the south of Venlo and after a coffee in the Fährhaus Steyl with the ferry over the Maas. Then off to the south through great little towns. After a good 20 km the sky finally tore open and it became warm again in summer. At Roermond we drove over the Meuse and saw the …

You can, but you don't have to. Lots of construction sites along the way, lots of bike paths right next to the road. Not my thing. 😉

Problems with Komoot at the start, then after a few attempts I deleted the app and reinstalled it. The tour is recommendable, and I particularly liked Asselt, Horn, Neer, Baarlo and of course Kessel (no photo today).
The tour can also be halved by turning right before Rijkel to the bike ferry to cross over to the other side to …
