On the minor roads of Hesbaye

Set in the heart of Walloon Brabant, not far from Brussels, Wavre is your starting point for this second stage. Leaving the sports complex, you soon make your way out of the city to pedal along quiet country roads.
You pass through typical villages charmingly named Grez-Doiceau, Piétrebais or Mélin, one of the most beautiful villages of Wallonia. This ride ends on the Line 142 RAVeL as you enter Jodoigne, a town lying on the boundaries of Brabant and Hesbaye, which has been inhabited since Ancient Times.
