You, sir, are a machine! So inspirational. That route also looks like my idea of cycling bliss - long, flat, quiet gravel through the woods. 👌🏽. Oh and the 4 F’s. Love it.
Knisper-knapper-lekkernij, die Geile Strecke…. You are in the vibe, je hebt je passie te pakken zo te zien. Op naar de Plug Plug Taxandria, benieuwd naar de beelden 👍
Hi Wim, ja daar lijkt het in deze video wel op 😅 is ook zo hoor, een lekker dagje fietsen is nooit verkeerd! PlugPlug zal zeker gefilmd worden, ben heeeeel benieuwd hoe ik die ga verteren. Hoe is het jou? Nog veel aan het fietsen?
Chapeau mate. That was epic. You've definitely got the legs for the 320. When you said that 320KM is a long time to be on a gravel bike, my first thought was - that's even a long time to be on a motorbike. This route looks fantastic.
Well done buddy!! Training absolutely paid off! Amazing! You are a trooper! Congrats on this effort (and Peter also), and stay tuned on the trainings for that Plug Plug Taxandria! That’s going to be even more epic. Oh man, I think you can do this, seriously. Proper food and drinks along the way should get you there. Thumbs up!!
Interesting. My bikefitter did the same. Lower saddle, lower handlebar, more forward :). Took a little bit getting used to but it's fine now. Can ride hours without pain.
That's definitely interesting. Was it on a gravel bike? I tried to copy the bike position I still have from my road bike to my gravel bike and that seems to have been too aggressive. I am still experimenting with the angle of the handle bars and the hoods. To be continued!
Well done, Maarten. And as always a good and funny video. But unfortunately you didn´t tell the viewers how the second stop (backdoor knocking) was. :D
Hi Melvin! Ja, deze moet je ook echt een doen, schitterende route! Thanks voor het compliment en leuk om je op Taxandria te zien, welke afstand ga je doen?
Hi Roni! You mean a trail mountainbike, right? I couldn't tell you what the difference is, I have never had a mountainbike. A gravel bike does have less (no) suspension, so you tend to ride on less technical offroad.
@@MaartenOverweg next weekend my wife will be on vacation. I then have some days before leaving to Italy. When the weather is good I may give it a try.

Thank you very much, Marcus! Remember the 4F's! Super important... 😉😅

Thanks mate! Yeah, this was already quite the slog, but happy with how it felt. Just a couple more weeks and we'll know if I can do the 320 😅
Easy, peasy mate! 200 miles will bve a breeze! Lovely route btw and as always great video🙂
Thanks Snorre!
Mate. Amazing! You're going to smash the big 200 miles. Proper proud of you and a true inspiration. Great vlog and Peter did a great job.
Love you, Pickles! Thanks, man! I'll try to make you proud 🥳

Thanks Jan! I'll do my best 😅
Wow. So impressive what’s you’ve done the last half year! Well done 💪🏼
Thanks Hansee! You've been a big part of the succes, thanks for all your help!
Well done who ever you are , father Ted....
That's the great thing about CZcams - it's very vague and no-one knows what its really all about. Amen, Imam Noel!
@@MaartenOverweg all the work has paid off... roll on the big one...
Awesome ride. Looked too easy 😊!
hahahaha, I'm just very good at acting...😅
Well done great effort
Shane! You old beaver, you! How you've been? 216km is your warm up ride, isn't it?

@@MaartenOverweg Yes gravelbike.

Thanks Olaf! Second stop wasn't needed, it turned out to be air....
Prachtroute! Zeker ook eens rijden! Ik zie je op Taxandria Maarten! Leuke vlogs!
Hi Melvin! Ja, deze moet je ook echt een doen, schitterende route! Thanks voor het compliment en leuk om je op Taxandria te zien, welke afstand ga je doen?
So what’s the difference in driving on gravel guys? Is it harder than trail?
Hi Roni! You mean a trail mountainbike, right? I couldn't tell you what the difference is, I have never had a mountainbike. A gravel bike does have less (no) suspension, so you tend to ride on less technical offroad.
@@MaartenOverweg yep. That is what I was talking about? It makes sense now.
Nice route. I just copied it to my komoot.
I highly recommend it! Definitely one of the best gravel routes I have ever done!
