A wide simple sidewalk type of path in Belgium

From a Belgium trip blog:

"Cycling is Very Popular in This Part of the World."


"My friend took me cycling along the canal and it was such a pleasurable experience on a bluesky sunny day! Here in Belgium there is something of a culture to cycle, so these lovely big tracks wide and smooth, are common along the canals."

Then, one of the blog's visitors, JudyinPA, then says: "I like those kinds of bike paths. Would enjoy this kind of a trip. Lucky you!" (Tue Oct 7, 2003 15:15 UTC)
