  • We explore the beautiful town of Ghent, Belgium which has now become our favorite Belgium town. We check out the amazing Gravensteen Castle and a few other sites before heading to Brussels. In Brussels we see more fun touristy sites like the statue of the peeing boy and a few cathedrals. Then we have an amazing time with our Warm Showers host who lets us stay in his yurt.

    Tried *really* hard to wait and watch the vids one after another once they were all posted, couldn't do it!! 😁 But proud that I could hold out at least this long... SO FREAKING AMAZING!!! ❤ 🚴 I'm a hiker not a biker, and this has inspired me to do lots of rucking (I think they call it over there, ie rucksack) either in loops or place-to-place. So inspirational and beautiful to see your trip, and all the love and karma you collected along the way. Heading over to leave a little comment on the first three vids for the YT gods, and cannot wait for the next installment. Kudos for the wonderful vids!!

    Really interested to find out what you guys thought of the Ardennes region where no doubt the next video will play out. I dare say it's the most popular cycling region for us Dutch folks as it is very close to our flatlands.

      You’re right, that will probably be in the next video. I recently it being really tough especially with loaded bikes, but also beautiful.
