The Hell of the North. We have seen and ridden a lot of the sections, we've been to the velodrome three times, and today Peter went down to the Arenburg Forest a
nd rode it just before the pro's then rode hard all the way back via main roads to where we were watching. Robert, Craig and I chased the back cow paths and cobbles to see 
the race in three places then Robert and I headed to a bar and saw the replay of them coming into the velodrome. After section 4 there just is not that much further to go. Pete managed to find a bar and Belgium's to watch the finish, imagine that?After watching this race and seeing the clouds of dust it's easy to understand why some riders prefer rain. To see this all this of a world class sports event, we paid only for our beer and rode a total of 45 minutes. Pretty darn amazing.
We came home and made left-overs and spent the evening outside enjoying a beautiful evening. I walked around the town, sidewalks were rolled up but still a nice little town.

It really was an exiting race. Thanks for all the posts and photos Dave. I watched the race on cyclingfans.com. Wish I was there.
That was a good race. A lot of action, some on road bickering, just the way we do it. Great report Dave. You are doing an excellent job.
