Day 1 – Sun 17 June - Chunnel to Belgium – 223 miles

[Joybringer]

Nothing too spectacular en route, and a reasonably short 223 miles or so for the first day. Just don't get me started on the foul taste of Belgian wheat beer

HOTEL HERE

Yeah - there's a better dogging spot further south

Looks to be a good run this

Any tips on how to open GPX file

This is from someone who doesn't know what a GPX is

Actually when I think about it .....was it a lambretta

Don't remember the building
In the dim and distant past
But enjoyed my time in Belgium.

Fruit Beer anyone?
