The Bemelenberg. (Amstel-Gold Race)
With the racing bike, it's all about dividing the effort. After the cornering, it's still climbing.
With the Tour bike, it's about finding a good rhythm and enjoying it.

Thanks in advance to @PapaTom, whose route served as the basis for our tour today. From Aachen, we went directly to the border crossing point, which was still deserted that morning. Then we followed the railway line (Ravel No. 39) to Liège to our first "tourist destination": Liège-Guillemins station, designed by Santiago Calatrava and opened in 2009. Worth seeing and …
