Starts in Doornzele on the Dries. Not too many pictures as it was quite busy.

The Dries is a piece of grass in the middle of the town where in old times all people in the village were allowed to grow crops, and farmers would bring their cattle to check and trade them.

In Doornzele is the only original Dries remaining in Western Europe.

In the picture below i'm about to leave the village. The white with red stripe sign. This automatically means i'm allowed to go 90km/hr. Except there is a sign indicating 70 so it's 70 km/hr here. And not 100meters further is a sign with 50 km/hr. This is Belgium.

Thank you for the post. I really enjoy seeing ride photos from other countries. It somehow makes those countries more real to me. Does that make any sense at all.

Makes a lot of sense really, I have only seen a very small part of the US when i was there. Seeing all those pictures on here really brings home the variety of the landscape. And all in one country too!
 
"child head stone".........is that the same as cobblestone?

Kinderkopjes is the Dutch word. Little childeren's heads. Which appears to mean the same as Kasseien , the cobblestones i think. But there is a difference in size. One is the size of a child's head the other ussually smaller. The large ones are used on roads in the country used by large vehicles etc.
 
That,s looking great ride i really satisfy with you and hope you will do much better ride and make much good plan for the next ride and hope also you report the ride in the forum and at that time i am in US and use GBT services for travel bus indianapolis to new york
