What to bring ...

When you come to Belgium there is a long list of things you will want to bring, but with airlines being extra vigilant with baggage allowances you will need to be prudent with your selection. Some things to consider bringing:

Notebook Computer: For many cyclists this is their link back to home and a way for them to connect with family, friends and loved ones.

Camera: They are cheap and so very small these days that you can take them with you just about everywhere and record all the fun moments of your trip.

Tools: There is no need to go crazy with the amount of tools you will bring to Belgium as the number of bike shops around doesn’t warrant the need. Most of the time a local bike shop will be able to help you out with little to sometimes no cost for simple use of a tool.

Race Wheels: It is always a good idea to have a nice set of wheels as they will last. It is always best to save on the extra weight of two sets of wheels and go with a set of race wheels that will take a beating, but you can still train on.
