Great experience

We are casual bikers, but occasionally do 25 mile trips here at home. We did every leg of the trip, over 180 miles total and it was great. We did luck out as we had only a short period of rain. Everything about the trip met or exceeded our expectations. The barge we were on, the Magnifique II, was well set up and the food was very good. The bike guide was knowledgeable and interesting. It is an amazing way to see, hear, and even smell, the countryside. The stops along the way were also interesting, especially Ghent and Antwerp, places I would not ordinarily visit.
