Monday 5th September 2011 Vlijmen to Eindhoven 58 km

Another good ride with nice weather. All the European school terms started today, and the cycle paths and back roads were much quieter.

Eindhoven is the home of Philips Electronics and DAF trucks and cars. Much of the city was destroyed by bombing during the war, so it has a more modern appearance compared to the other cities we've seen.

We have to keep remembering to cycle on the right side of paths and roads, especially when we enter traffic circles or four way intersections. It's so easy to forget and drift over to the left.
