Randonneurs NL brevets in the 2022 season

Alan, yes it was, though you'd be laughed off the Alfa Romeo forum for your mispelling! Good to meet you.

Oh dear... never noticed that  - but it gets worse, I was the proud owner of an Alfa back in the 90's
an Imola 75 series.

Anyway good to see you finished, more than I could manage. I could have helped with the water though, the track had lots of waypoints for local authority water taps along the route. I agree the route back could have been better but then it would have gone way over distance.

Thanks Ivo,

Roef had given us some water tap locations along the route but I didn't have the info with me during the day - my error, thankfully the locals were friendly! Now if I'd known about the map you've linked to....

Also, forgot to sat many thanks to slugbait and quixoticgeek OTP for the advice pre-ride.

No problem, good to hear it was helpful and a nice report of the ride. Unfortunately, I was unable to join that day. But if you're riding (or you're volunteering on)  LEL: I'm the guy on a blue steel bike with a traditionial randonneur bag on a front rack and a Carradice-like bag at the back. Feel free to approach me.

I'll be running the show at Barnard Castle - look forward to meeting you (twice)

During the final weekend of september we'll offer a 600 in Boekelo (near the German border). This 600 still counts for your PBP pre-qualification.
