That looked like an interesting area on google maps. Endless wobbly drive along the IJssel, endless very narrow strips of farmland with endless straight roads through them.

OMG it's everywhere! |
 |
The Algerabrug. Opened in 1958 and renovated in 2016. It looks a bit odd, the little roofs on top. Makes it feel more like 'home' I guess :) |
 |
Fresh paint job. |
 |
Nice drive along the river, that sunset time always puts on a good show. |
 |
Riding on a dyke the low sun casts bicycle rider shadows on roofs and everything. Riding into autumn haha! |
 |
That's where I will be riding soon. |
 |
Interesting design - to make your factory look bigger? |
 |
Nice 3D effect on a 2D fence. Same designer?
I like it. |
 |
Thank the Lord, some industrial plants in the perfect community. I saw signs like 'Nooit Volmaakt' - 'Never Perfect'. And a lot of 'For Sale ' signs on the houses. A LOT. |

A nice but out-of-place bridge to the beginning of the Tiendweg. |
 |
It goes on for 13 kms. The first part is quite rough. Changed headlight batteries. Very dark, very quiet. It goes on and on.
Saw a furry ball in the middle of the road- a rat? Hedgehog? Pixie? Gone when I looked back. Later I saw an elongated reddish brown animal like a small marter? WTF? Gone when I looked back. Birds? made all kinds of warning noises when I speeded along with my big headlight.
There must be amazing fauna in these areas.
Then I bumped into two people in the middle of nowhere, in the darkness. Many kms from anywhere. What strange creatures. I asked for directions. |
 |
After that wonderful drive, back on the IJsseldijk, I saw this house with the front door opening directly on the road.
Must get used to cars ripping briefcase out of hands early morning. |

Resting for a while near the Algerabrug. Very psychedelic. Yep, early 60's. |
