This video shows the last day of a biking vacation to the Netherlands, with the Backroads group, in May 2014. We spent part of the time in The Netherlands (“Holland”) and the last days in Belgium.
Backroads is a Biking vacation group. Most of the Backroads (and “VBT”) trips we went on were designed mainly for biking — as the main sports activity. This was our 5th trip with the Backroads group.
The first 5 days of the trip are summarized in a video about “Backroads — Biking Trip, Netherlands”

Day 6: Final biking on trip: 0:00 to 25:00
Train to Brussels: 25:35
Electricity and Plumbing in Europe 27:35 to 30:00
This video was on our last day of Backroads biking trip, in the Netherlands.
This morning bike ride was relatively short (11 miles). It ended up being a “follow the leader” ride as we biked around Bruges, guided by one of the Backroads leaders.
I have posted a printed description of this trip on a website, entitled, “Vacation Stories.”
