    A day in the life of an R850GS – Part 2

    ByIris 7 December 202010 August 2024

    We continue our journey towards the big road. On weekdays it’s a crowded place, but on Sunday morning it’s as peaceful as a dewdrop. Straight ahead, at 90km/hour, we cruise along. The world is silent. Slowly I’m starting to think that maybe she doesn’t know where she’s going. Maybe she’s just driving along towards new…

    A day in the life of an R850GS – Part 1

    ByIris 30 November 202010 August 2024

    It’s early in the morning. It’s dark. It’s cold. I’m surrounded by others, yet I’m alone. She’s far away from me. Every night she leaves me for another. I see her going inside her apartment with this guy after he parks his companion next to me. I think he also likes me, but sometimes he…

    Trans Euro Trail highlights Belgium and The Netherlands

    ByIris 11 November 202010 August 2024

    The truth is that I’ve been holding off writing this blog. Practical advice isn’t really my strong point. Mostly I write about experiences, thoughts, plans or adventures. First, I did this on paper. Then, during my stay in Ecuador, it moved online, simply because it was a requirement to obtain a scholarship. From then on,…

    Running, hiking and biking

    ByIris 2 June 202010 August 2024

    Life is moving and when I sit still I often get the feeling it may leave me behind. Life is an action, an adventure, rather than time passively passing by. When talking about adventure people often think of tropical islands, secluded deserts, snowy mountains or lush rain forests, and they are right, but at the…

    Riding through winter: A guide to only partly freeze to death

    ByIris 28 January 202010 August 2024

    First, let me clarify. Winter in Belgium are temperatures around 0°C, rain and mist. In theory we should have snow, but that hasn’t really been the case for quite some years. With riding I in turn mean taking your bike on a multi-hour spin. Back and forth to the shop in general shouldn’t be an…
