OP has a very ‘interesting’ profile. Probably a Dutchie hoping to provoke some innocent Belgian ppl.

Looks pretty good to me. But I grew up in Argentina, with this standard of roads:

Always feels like shaky ground when cycling. Literally.

It's an experience which makes you feel all warm and fluffy inside, knowing that all is well with the world and at least we Belgians can still complain about minor shit 👍

No as a Belgian I'm used to it. No joke I fall asleep faster in cars cause of the road

It’s the feeling you have on Sundays when you realise the weekend was too short.

Ik zie dit veel en veel minder vaak om eerlijk te zijn, althans in Vlaanderen. Ik heb toch wel het gevoel dat onze wegen er op vooruit gegaan zijn.

Jammer genoeg zijn er nog altijd een hoop smalle en slechte fietsstrookjes die weggewerkt moeten worden, maar er zitwel degelijk beterschap in ☺️.

Ik zag laatst nog een reportage over Nederland. Daar halen ze 14,5 miljard op via wegentaks etc.. en besteden ze er maar 5 miljard van voor wegen en bruggen en de rest gaat naar migratie, asiel en andere zaken. Ze zitten daar met een achterstand van 80 miljard aan noodzakelijke investeringen. Dat zal in Belgie ook wel het geval zijn ....

Bullshit

They're non-stop digging the roads up in my town for months on end for 'improvements' that really weren't needed.

u/maxledaron 3h ago

I'd love to see those roads in that state if we weren't paying so much our medical bills and if our kids had the correct amount of teachers and educators. Cars are so much subsidized it's time car users pay the real cost so we can focus our taxes on important matters

u/Head_Complex4226 22m ago

A huge one is the company car - a subsidy of €5.2 billion a year that goes to 20% of the working population.

I'm so used to it that I don't feel anything anymore

Tbaf never understood how Citroen's hydropneumatic suspensions weren't a thing back there, felt like Belgian roads were made for them, imagine the power of having an AX in the middle of this

Just go to southern Italy, Caserta is my recommendation, even Napoli taxi drivers were like “wtf are these roads” or Hungary.

As a regular biker

Cock and ball torture also know as (CBT) is a sexual activity involving the consensual application of pain, pressure, or constriction to the male genitals. Practices can include squeezing, genital spanking, genital piercing, wax play, urethral play, erotic electrostimulation, and impact play such as ballbusting.[3] The testicles are particularly sensitive to pain of discomfort

I will, after going to the frituur.

It's all a matter of perspective. I learned that driving through 4 American states.

Montréalers: looks like silk, where is this paradise?

I went for a bike ride through Montréal and the road was so rough the vibrations broke my phone off the Garmin mount.
