A long ride to Brussels

6.45 on the road and yet again very cold at 6 degrees. After about 50km of Czech roads and another 100km of German countryside, I pulled over, stuck a few extra PSI in my tyes and hit the Autobahns heading for Brussels.

After 6.5 hours and 3 fuel and toilet stops, I entered Brussels and rode through the centre and past the EU Commission building on my British bike, however being 4.30pm on a Friday afternoon, no one was there anyway.

I met up with Andy (who I met on my last tour) at the hostel and after a quick shower, we headed out into town to get some food and chat about our different journeys.

The 2 of us have had some amazing adventures and successfully navigated our way around Europe on two wheels.
The Brussels underground system however was somewhat challenging but we managed to get back to the hostel with only one stop in the wrong direction.
