What Pauwels Sauce did you put on your frites? Did you buy a set of Toyo tires to ship home? Did you ask Wout to sign your Quad?

And what was ordered from Prik&Tik?
For such grim weather, it looked like quite a party in the crowds.
Speaking of fan zealotry, at Heuden-Zolder I enjoyed the commentary on the section of the course that fans weren't allowed on because it's "religoius ground." Fans? Absolutely not. 80 CX racers flinging mud around? Absolutely!
I'm very sorry to disappoint, but I didn't end up going to the CX race.
Also searched at two different grocery stores, and couldn't find any Pauwel's sauce. Disappointment number two.
But I did get a few bottles of Westvletern, so not all was lost.
To be completely honest, I was too tired to do much more. The last few days felt rather unpleasant and wasn't helped by having to wake up at 3:30 in the morning to take the train to Belgium. Ended up doing some sight seeing in the morning and early afternoon, only to proceed straight to hours-long napping in the late afternoon. I guess that's another way of saying I'm getting old.
