For all the pedal pushers out there that love long distance cycling. There are no gear requirements and no 'minimum distances' here.
Have you ridden for a cheeky overnighter or a 3 year global trek? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.
Have you got panniers, bikepacking bags or just a backpack with the essentials? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.
Have you got the latest in carbon engineering or your dads old 10 speed from the 70's? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

Yeah, sopme nice towns there too. Who makes the better fries though, the belge or the dutch :) I think that on the highest point of the Netherlands there is a belgian frituur* iirc, haha. I'm not sure, i love both.
*edit: Looking at google maps, that frituur i was thinking about is in Belgium i guess, not NL. Thought it was some kind of friet capitulation from NL side, guess not, haha.
Where ever you are in Dutch or Belgium Limburg, the fries handcut and twice fried are good. I like the Belgian mayo better. But in Aachen I know a few places that have good “pommes” (and currywurst) as well. In the south we call it a “frituur” as well, calling fries “friet”, where as in the North of Holland (boven de rivieren) they are called snackbars and they serve “patat”.
If you are ever in South Limburg again, cycling here is great, try a frietje zuurvlees and mayonaise.
Good evening to you.
