In Meensel-Kiezegem, they’re proud of “their” Eddy, because the cycling legend was born here. Even as a child, he used to race around his grandmother’s farmyard on his tricycle, and today a statue of him stands proudly in front of his birthplace. This recreational cycling route offers a taste of the most beautiful bike paths in his native region. Enjoy the view of the rust-brown Vlooyberg Tower and admire the fruit-themed works of art among the orchards along the way.
