Not quite the summer but there's 13 of us going over to ride the Tour of Flanders randonee at the start of April . Normally these trips are a bit boy-heavey but this time there'll be 5 girls in our group which'll be great.

We'll be riding the 50 mile route, while the boys do the 90 miler but we'll be taking in several of the famous cobbles hills.

Take a look at www.rvv.be and click on Hills for some pics of the climbs. Only short, but bliddy steep!

Can't wait to get out there and ride...
