First time on cobbles

On 31st March, Mark rode the Tour of Flanders Sportive. Climbing the cobbled bergs is a real chalenge, especially if you have never ridden on cobbles before. The route went up many of the famous climbs including the Oude Kwaremont and the Patterberg (but not the Muur this year). He has promised to do a write-up of his experiences, but in the meantime here he is on one of the cobbled climbs - and doesn't he look like he's having a ball:

Anyway, chapeau to him!
