This morning’s 41 km cycle ride was a nice loop to the north of Heerlen.

The fairly hill route took me through Brunssummerheide, Schutterspark and twice through the small town of Schinveld.

Despite the route being followed being on my Ride with GPS navigation system, I chose to ignore it a crucial moment.

I turned left instead of right and found myself on the correct route but travelling in the wrong direction.

No harm done, but the ride ended up being about 3 km shorter than expected.

Today’s featured image if of the water well in the small Dutch village of Merkelbeek.

Warm sunshine and clear blue skies made for a comfortable ride and a great backdrop for today’s pictures.
