Me again laughing at my brother in law , 'cause i knew what was coming (epic stuff !! )


Roches de Bilisse or Rocks of Bilisse.Strange rock formation , looks like they shot out of the earth zillion years ago.


Old Romain "paved" road , a murder climb approx 1,5 miles long.


Then my battery died , no more pics,after the Romain road it was about two miles to the car were we had an excellent beer :

Awesome stuff, highest point in Belgium haha!

Very nice. How far is that from where the Battle of the Bulge was fought?

This is the Bulge where they fought. Bastogne is about 50 miles from Theux.

But it is.....

thanks for the photos...now i have 2 reasons to visit belgium; always wanted to visit and drink at all the sweet belgium pubs! ...guess i could try and fill a camel back after my pub visit and keep the good times rollin...but then again i guess drinkin would end up my priority and i wouldn't get too far on the bike...anyways thanks for letting us live vicariously; belgium looks beautiful!
