Along the way I spotted an adventurous biker riding on the safetylane. I passed by with while giving a big thumbs up and felt that I needed to stop a bit further to have a chat. While taking of my helmet and gloves the guy came closer and (again upon seeing my licenseplate) said; ‘Eindelijk weer eens Nederlands praten!’ This hero is called David and decided to ride his bicycle from Belgium to Tehran. After a great chat we promised each upon finishing our trips to have a nice glass of La Chouffe when back in the flatlands.
