Our final complete day’s ride was through the prolific and prosperous flat lands of Belgium and the southern Netherlands. We rode the immense Delta Works that hold the North Sea at bay. It’s dead flat through here and a hive of industry as final harvesting and pre winter ploughing and sowing was taking place. The weather was cold at 10c max for the whole ride but it was also a gorgeous autumn day so no complaints.
On to Dordrecht which is the oldest town in the Netherlands and also a canal town. Our comfortable residence for the night was right on one of them.
Once again we wandered the town and sampled it’s beauty and diversity.
It was a 215 km day along superb roads and through delightful countryside.
