Default Belgium jaunt.

Sorry..dont know where else to post this.

Me and 2 mates have decided to get the Rosyth ferry to Belgium on Fri 29th June to Belgium then ride somewhere and be back for work on the Monday.

Would really appreciate some routes/suggestions.

ps..pm'd Tim in Belgium but just incase I dont hear back fom TIB back I've posted main forum.

Thanks

You could alwyas sta on the E40 all the way to Germany and to the Nurburgring!!!

E40 to Brussells, then head towards Maastricht, then Aachen and finally the 258 to Adenau and Nurburg. Some awesome roads. Don't really know twisities in Belguim all that well.

If you'd gone on theThursday night you could have gone to the Dutch MotoGP at Assen (like me !!!).

Let us know what the Rosyth sailing's like - tempted to use it next year some time.

Have fun wherever you end up.

Hey there, I used to live in Belgium for 17 years. I would thoroughly recommend the southern part in the Ardennes. The north is all flat. I have had some nice visits around Dinant and up into the hills/forests to the West and East of it, although I have never had a bike in Belgium.

I'd reccommend the Ardennes region and pop across to the French part of the Ardennes too (roads are better). Keep in the southern bit of belgium as apparently the Belgian-French have only a handful of speed cameras but the Belgian-Dutch have shed loads..... We stayed in a very bike friendly B+B. Will have a hunt at home for the link. He has a big big garage to lock all the bikes in and is a biker himself. The roads in Luxembourg are nice n smooth too.
