1 year agoI beg to differ. My favorite “no wow” town in the Netherlands is still my favorite simply because it exists and works..for those who live there..not us tourists.. Even the legend in front points this out! Park, medical, library, etc.. We can’t all be “shining stars”, but they still have their fine points ;)

Probably invested more in it than my house is worth.
Maybe?

1 year agoI guess you have to find the exact right beach for this.
The people in the photos do not look much like rameurs.
Thanks, Michel
With the help of WIKI: Le longe-côte ou marche en mer appelé improprement randonnée aquatique est un sport pratiqué à l'origine dans le nord de la France (Dunkerque, Bray-Dunes), sur des plages de sable, consistant à marcher avec de l'eau jusqu'au diaphragme en s'aidant éventuellement d'une pagaie pour avancer.
Cette discipline a été mise au point en 2005 par Thomas Wallyn, entraineur d'un club d'aviron de Dunkerque. Il concevait cette activité comme complément d’entraînement pour les rameurs.
Hi,
Lots of memories for me on that route. The sand on the path near Les Sables is good to ride on even in the rain, but it does get into the drivetrain. Give my best to Michael.
Cheers
It was ok but not an 8. Closer to a 6 to 7. However, since we mentally subtracted the 9 euro entrance fee from each breakfast fee, we were happy.

Hi,
1 year agoMe! I’ve ridden that section, it was fine. Gravel, yes, but hard packed and level.
Cheers
