My favorite 2 tunnel route with small sidesteps.
Great day with impressive light and clouds.

Trying to capture 'The Tunnel Experience'.
click
Tunnel entrance - the Maastunnel for cyclists.
click
There is an elevator too, but who would want to take that when you can take a ride on this!
click
The trusty but alway a bit leaky tunnel. Or so it seems as there are always tiles missing or coming loose.
click
Amusing place to advertise your stuff.
click
I wonder how many wooden escalators there still are.
click
Mermaids welcoming you to the deep.
click
From the dark into the light. This must be one of the prettiest tunnel exits existing. The impressive ss Rotterdam moored in just the right place.
click
Yes, clouds are playing a major role today.
click
I consider this the main entrance to the Waalhaven.

Looking back from a 577m long path to the middle of Waalhaven.

Small detour to visit the walking ship.

Good to see it walking again ;)
click
Clouds and sunbeams on the Vondelingenweg.
click
Took the longer 'industrial' way around to
the Benelux bicycle tunnel.

The shorter way is through Pernis,
a more 'natural' route. A nice contrast.
click
Going under there.

Down we go.

Elevator here, too.
Mostly filled with scooter smoke.
click
All steel, glass and concrete here. I like the light in the narrow high space. Next generation bicycle tunnels made out of nano-plastic most likely.
click
Quite steep. Easy to get 45kmh ;)
click
Again, light at the end of the tunnel. Last picture, phone memory full. But a nice one to round off a tour I will hopefully make many more times.
