Ride a bike, share your experience and love. When I go biking, I repeat a mantra of the day's sensations: bright sun, blue sky, warm breeze, blue jay's call, ice melting and so on. This helps me transcend the traffic, ignore the clamorings of work, leave all the mind theaters behind and focus on nature instead. I still must abide by the rules of the road, of biking, of gravity. But I am mentally far away from civilization. The world is breaking someone else's heart. ~Diane Ackerman

Ghent Wevelgem March 27, 2011

The Gent–Wevelgem is a Flanders Classics cycle road race held in Belgium in early April each year. The event was first run in 1934, and it is often called the sprinters' classic due to its flat finishing terrain.[

Despite its name, the race hasn't started in Ghent since 2004, traditionally beginning on the market square of nearby Deinze. The course then sets westward towards the Belgian coastal region, after which it moves southwards near the French border towards the Monteberg and Kemmelberg, before heading towards Wevelgem. The 72nd edition was held on March 28, 2010, and covered 219 kilometres.
