This tour is designed around a simple training ride in the morning with afternoons free to discover beautiful Brugge.  

There is much to do and see and while the training rides are scheduled you could choose to ride to many of the local sites instead of training! 

Today we welcome you to Brugge.  There is bike set up for those just joining us followed by a welcome ride that will introduce you to the pave, classic canal riding and the country lanes.

We’ve designed a 3 – 4 hour morning ride that explores the North West Flanders region of Belgium. There will no doubt be the obligatory coffee stop but you’ll get back to Brugge in time for lunch and the day is then yours.

Tourism in Brugge is wonderfully diverse. A canal boat tour is great way to see this fascinating town on the your first afternoon as it will give you a view of Brugge, with an historic perspective that will enhance your experience of Brugge over the next few days. 

We will generally re-group for dinner or a beer. The dining choices are very good.

Another morning ride.  The beauty of riding in Belgium is that you get to ride “pro hours’.

There will still be much that you may want to see in Brugge, museums a plenty and plenty of chocolate.

This afternoon there is the option for the true cycling fanatic to join the group on a scenic drive to experience the start of the “Scheldeprijs – semi classic in the Netherlands. 

Experience the frenzy of the start and watch the race with Phil, check, if he won it. We will return to Brugge via a Brewery where we may settle in to watch the race finish live on TV.

Another classic training ride through the countryside and laneway’s and training roads that stretch beyond Brugge.

A recovery day may be on the cards, the choice is yours.

Our last day in Brugge and the afternoon may be filled with exploring more of this gorgeous town or perhaps you will choose to travel further afield.  Brugge is well connected to to other northern Belgian towns and we are happy to assist if you need.

Today is the end of services by Phil Anderson and the Ride International Team.

We will take you to the Brugge train station unless your forward travels include the Paris Roubaix weekend.
