A nice short stage but a bit dangerous traffic the last hour of the run.
Very scenic course the first 2 hours, though, with small rural villages,
canals, riverboats, old leaning oak trees.

And a very nice team: Rebecca who is a marathon runner herself - which is
just part of the training to become a professional fire-fighter. Hopefully
she is near her courageous goal :-)
