I’m starting a new series of posts where I’m gonna highlight my favorite gravel routes in The Netherlands. Today, it’s Sallandse Heuvelrug, a great route in one of the national parks in the eastern part of the country.

Yesterday Karolina and I took a longer route than usual, and did a 100 kms over gravel, fire roads, and bike lanes around National Park Veluwezoom and Hoge Veluwe (Arnhem/Ede area).

First time ever: gravel ride on a frosty New Year’s Day morning! Happy 2021! 🎉

I’ve been riding bikes for a very long time, and although I’ve had breaks, I can safely say I’ve been riding bicycles throughout my whole life.

Companies selling "speed" and "aerodynamics" to dudes who only ride on the weekends, rather than selling them an experience. — John Watson (@JohnProlly) June 10, 2014 I used to laugh at people paying $7k for bicycles with handmade steel frames and all the hype that surrounded the whole NAHBS community.

Wired: Current methods of counting cyclists take a ton of time or a ton of money. The DOT can videotape traffic and have someone sit at a monitor and count cyclists, or it can send someone to sit on the sidewalk and watch them go by in real time.

I don’t ski,1 and every winter doing any sorts of sports becomes a major problem. This year I’m trying to change that.

That’s me riding the final climb of Bergen-Voss 2013 race, the famous road from Granvin to Voss and its hairpins around Skjervsfossen.
