- Smugglers' Path is one of those gravel cycling events you have to do. Well organised, great people, fantastic food en great routes. But man...the rain this year just flooded large parts of the route. Definitely tough going, a truly epic edition! Thanks to all the lovely organisers and the great people I met during the event!

Great performance Maarten!
The one and only Smugglers! Thank you and thank you for organising the best gravel events there are 🥳🙌
Oh man, that looked brutal! Huge respect for grinding through it and for resisting the booze! Another awesome video. 👏
Thanks Marcus! Yeah, that was one I won't be forgetting any time soon...😅 Maybe a couple beers to help me forget, would have been better 🤷♂
Well done mate...super strong and wet....
Thanks uncle!
Great ride and way to overcome the adverse conditions!
Thanks Blair!
Videos are great and you are hilarious!
Thank you very much! Your message made me smile from ear to ear ☺
Brilliant well done
Thank you very much! 🙌
epic edition!!
écht zonde dat we mekaar niet gezien hebben!!
You can say that again! 😅🙈 Ja, echt jammer! Ben je toevallig ook bij Le Fabuleux of PlugPlug Taxandria?
Mud grinding beats gravelgrinding😉 Great effort and video mate, and kudos for not quitting!
We don’t quit! We may cry a little, but we don’t quit 😂😅🥳
Gravel King 78 👍👍 Water was to be expected, not? 😀 Great job, ready for team ‘Nevergiveup’ 👻
😅 Never give up indeed! But to be honest, there was a point in the ride where I considered giving up and calling it a day 🙈The trick is not to listen to that voice, laugh about yourself and just keep going 🥳
Biking provides life lessons as well 👍 For ‘free’ 😀 Well done 👍
Great video mate. I'll bet that small bit of dry gravel made the other 159KM of wet sludge worth the grind.....or not!!! Loving your work as always, sir.
And a grind it was 😅 also hard on the bike and brake pads. I just had them replaced, but think I'll be needing new ones again 😂 And thanks for the compliment, good sir! What will be your next event?
@@MaartenOverweg I'm now into the serious training phase for the Belvoir Castle Triathlon (Olympic distance). But, I've spotted a few sprints that I may drop in as 'B' races. Looking forward to seeing where the gravel takes you next, too.....what's on the plan?
Waow, that was indeed very wet😵. I can imagine you are tired😅
Wet, wet, wet! 😂
I rode 13 km and then decided to do a 100k loop towards Eindhoven on the road and Leendertbos.
Hi Davy! Too bad, I was looking for you as I was also at the back of the peloton 😅 I do understand your decision though, that mud and water was no joke. Looking forward to seeing you at PlugPlug! Are you gonna come a day early too?
@@MaartenOverweg I’m gonna sleep at my in-laws house, they live near the start. I hope to pass by the market and stuff the day before. Should work out.
Goed zo Maarten
Dank je wel!
Nice 😅
😅🥳
BTW it should be illegal to ride through a brewery without having a beer 🙂
I know, I know 😅🤷♂️
dikke proficiat
Dank u! Dit was zeker geen gemakkelijke 😅
