On Saturday I went for a ride on the Island of Texel (it's not far from here). I went with a couple of guys from the motorrijdenmetelkaar website. We left Alkmaar at midday, and rode in about an hour to Den Helder where we caught the ferry.
We rode this route around the Island.
We stopped off at the viewpoint for the Slufter, a tidal estuary rich in wildlife.
We adopted this guy (with the cap) who we met, as he had some great motorbike stories
We then rode on to the most northern village, c0cksdorp (no sniggering in the backseats
) where we had a bite to eat near the lighthouse.
After this we headed back to the ferry port, we stopped off at this old fort near the port:
while we were here a group of tuktuk tourists rode by:
Then back on the boat:
We rode back from Den Helder along the coast to Alkmaar where we all said goodbye.
I had a great day with a great bunch of guys, and the weather was amazing (for October):rockon:
