A great day’s ride. Not as windy as yesterday. A bit overcast but good light for some atmospheric shots.
These storm surge barriers are impressive. They are about 9km long. Built between 1976 and 1986, they are the largest in The Netherlands.
The barrier was constructed in response to the North Sea flood of 1953, which devastated large parts of Zeeland, South Holland and North Brabant, much of which lies below sea level.
Stats.
Total time including stops: 9:02.
Today was my longest ride (it was actually 63 miles but the Garmin gave up 2.5 miles from the end)
