#1: Overview

(visited by Karl Bryk and Heny Bryk)

13-Jun-2016 -- While on a 9-day cycling holiday with my brother Heny, we had the opportunity on the eighth day to visit CP 52N 5E. I had already visited this CP twice with Michael, once in 2007 and once in 2015.

We had stayed the night before in Breukelen and our next hotel was in Hedel. We estimated that the leg to Hedel would be shortish - about 85 km - so when I realized 52N 5E was close to our route (about a 10 km detour) it was an obvious visit to make.

The weather was sadly rainy and we had a headwind but we were used to that already. We had to take an indirect route to the CP as we were not allowed to cycle along the main A-road leading to the CP. It was not too much of a detour and we arrived at the CP during a pause in the rain around 1 o'clock.

The usual photos were taken and we headed back the same route (again in rain as it had started again) we had taken to get there to get back on our cycling route towards Hedel.
