Cycling, big ratios, alcohol, dope, money, lack of money, confidence problems.

Whatever. During a time, we cycled together with Mr Desmet, quite aged on a quite aged groene leeuw and I can say that he is still impressive

Not an easy life for sure.

But I have no doubt that almost any former pro can still ride the wheels off a bike...

Thanks for the kind replies. It was an awesome event indeed. Just like last year, when I first attended. I'm already looking forward to next year.

Here's a pretty good list. You might have to brush up on your Flemish, though: Retrokoers in NL en BE

Thanks non-fixie, hope to be able attend any of these in the summer.

You're welcome. Let us know if you attend any and what you think of them. I'm sure a lot of people in the region would be interested.

I've got a few of them penciled into my diary:

June 9th Retro Toertocht Heeswijk and/or September 6th Toertocht Rosmalen. (not sure, but I've met some of the organizers and they seem like a likeable bunch)

September 13th: Retro toertocht Utrechtse Heuvelrug, Amerongen (I've participated twice and liked it)

These photos are great and this list is invaluable, thanks for that. My girlfriend and I are planning a vacation in September, hopefully we can work in one of the events on the list.

Just could not resist adding this cool gopro footage from the fixed gear criterium I just found. Great stuff:
