FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS "MORE" THAN JUST BOUNDARY POSTS

In the autumn of 2027, we’ll be heading across the border again for anyone who wants “more” than just border posts! Bram Tankink has mapped out two really cool routes for gravel bikes and road bikes, starting in the Netherlands and taking in 11 reservoirs through the Eifel and the Ardennes. So this time, it’s not border posts but reservoirs that will be the highlights, but you can once again expect a wonderful event packed with experiences from us in the border region spanning Germany and Belgium. Who’s up for the challenge and will be back before sunset?
