All my muscles hurt.... Today I had a one day "off road" course in the forests and fields
around Tilburg.
It was organised by
Motor Trails and together with two other riders who did the course an instructor and two
helpers, I spend all day riding on places I never thought I would be able to ride..
Here you see me riding the Suzuki DR-Z 400
We used Suzuki DR-Z 400 off road bikes and had to wear full motocross gear with all protectors
so we looked like pro's .
I had a wonderful day and a very good workout !

During the trip I made with my wife yesterday, my "handlebar camera" broke down so
I needed a new one. I bought a Nikon S31 waterproof and shockproof camera so I don't
have to worry anymore when it starts raining when I have the camera on the handlebar.

This afternoon, my wife and I went to Roosendaal on our motorcycles to help a friend of us
with her computer. Then we went to a motyorcycle shop (I saw a nice GoldWing GL1200)
and from there to Tholen to pick up some things my wife bought. We drove home via the
Oesterdam and there I made the very last picture with my Fuji AX300 before my camera
finaly broke down.

Last weekend, we had a family-weekend with the Krijtenburg family,
my parents, my brother and sisters and our spouses, children and
grandchildren.
We had six holidayhomes on a holidaypark. On Saturday morning we played
indoor golf with the whole family and on Saturday evening we had a
big family dinner.

On every third Sunday in September, there is an "Amerikanendag" in Lepelstraat, a small
village near Bergen op Zoom. It is an event for American cars, trucks and motorcycles.
I went there to make an article for
RegioActueel.nl.
Harley Davidsons at the "Amerikanendag" in Lepelstraat
The weather predictions were bad but it turned out to be a nice sunny day. There were a lot
of very nice American cars, from a new Corvette to a very old Cadillac, old Ford and Chevy V8 pickup trucks,
a big truck and a lot of Harley Davidsons in different sizes and shapes and one Victory (another American
motorcycle manufacturer).

Today we visited the combined Late Summer Fair and Open Doors Day at BMW motorcycle
specialist "De Knalpot". A fun event to go to and a nice subject for a
RegioActueel.nl news article.
I went there first and my wife came later. Unfortunately, when parking her Honda something went wrong.
The Honda was not stable on its sidestand and when it fell she tried to stop it and hurt her leg doing so.
We did walked around on the fair and the motorcycle shop but after a while we got on the bikes to ride back
home because her leg was hurting to much.

My wife and I went to Bergen op Zoom this afternoon. After a visit to our son and a walk
in the city center, we went to Stayokay, in the forest, just outside Bergen op Zoom, to
