Hey there's Peter!
Welcome back In Transit!!! This is going to be incredible. I'll be anxiously awaiting my Instagram updates. #HeartOfBelgiumEmoji
Looking forward to seeing the trip! glad you're back!
Thank you! I’m excited for your new adventure!
can't wait to see it. been following you since Walk Stars.
At first I thought “wait…biking across Belgium…why not go biking in The Netherlands…!” But the beer story makes sense! Lots of bike shops (who also do repairs) in Belgium. Be sure to visit them if you run into bike trouble.
Starting with the best beer in the world, westvleteren! I'm from Belgium and i'm very excited for your adventure. You'll find it very enjoyable to bike around the country as there is such a big cyclist culture here. It's a very popular thing to cycle around and end up somewhere in a café or pub with an abbey beer in the sun. You won't be alone in your journey!
Looking forward to the adventure.
So stoked to follow this!!!!!
Sounds dope! Looking froward to the series!
Great to see the return of In Transit!
Wow that's only 550 miles? Belgium is tiny!
Remember when setting up for a bike trip – all the weight on the bike, none on the rider! Good luck.
Peter i will have to recommend you go to Cantillon in Brussels , i know is not a trappist but they make the best Gueuze. Great brewery with a lot of history and is family own.
Thats awesome man!! I was backpacking around Belgium back in November. Loved it so much!! I had some of the Orval beer since that is what the bartender recommended. It was good and I think you will enjoy it. When you are in Gent stay in the Hostel Uplink. It has an amazing central location. Amazing view out the rooms windows and you can rent kayaks for cheap it you would like. I stayed in Gent for a few days. It was one of my favorite cities.
I am also planning my own international bike trip so it is awesome to see you about to do a bike trip. I bought my plane ticket over to the country, but I am waiting a little bit and saving up money. Bought the plane ticket so I wont back out! Love the name of your trip too.
Ooooohhh stoked!!!!
Yaaaaay! A new trip! Can’t wait to see your adventure
Can already tell this is gonna be an intransit classic
Cant wait sounds great!
YESSS!!!! So excited to hear of a new adventure.
I've been saying for years that I'm going to travel but I have yet to even get my passport. I will be traveling vicariously through you on this journey. Safe travels. Can't wait!
Enjoy every 550 miles of that trip! Can’t wait to see your photos and videos.
Great to see you come to Belgium! Great choice, the city of Ghent is a beautiful vibrant authentic historical city. If you need some advice, you are free to ask.
I'm from Antwerp 😀 but I don't have any beer advice
I do recommend to stop by Bar Le Tour, Noordkasteel (summer bar during Le Tour de France) when you pass by the port of Antwerp. It's a cool, hippie hangout spot by the sailboat club. You can get delicious oven baked pizza at the nearby Kamping Kontiki. https://www.kampingkontiki.net/cafe-le-tour it's open from 7/1 until 8/30
so good to see you traveling for a living!

Maybe she can recommend some good places to visit while traveling thru Belgium.
I'm so excited you're back!!!
Hope this is actual restart. You did some GOOD quality content. I once considered you the most talented and underrated youtuber. I want your stuff to launch real hard. Excited for this adventure!!
Visit Luxembourg also! 😉
Sounds exciting! Looking forward to watching all of the adventures!!
Whatever you pack don’t use a backpack your back will hurt. So pack a lot of bags on your bike. It will be a lot but more comfy. Also get off the bike and stretch throughout the day. Finally don’t pack more than you need. And wear padded shorts.
Kick ass trip Pete! Glad to see u back In Transit
Sounds Good, Pete. Will you be camping also? I did a bit of bike packing in NZ and Tahiti. Great way to travel as you will be able to burn off the beer gut 🙂
So excited!
would love to do something like this. been on car+beer trips in belgium 4-5 times and its lovely. stay a extra night in brussels and go to A l'Imaige Nostre-Dame if you can find it. i love those small ally bars of brussels, you can get away from the turists 10 meters from them
I've done this trip by car with some friends, and it's something I will DEFINITELY do again! I highly recommend to stay at Chimay's hotel. It's very small, but right above Chimay's bar/restaurant, and the place is gorgeous. Best of luck to you and I know you'll have an amazing time!
Bit late to the party but I was wondering which route program you used. Next time you cycle in Flanders, use http://www.fietsnet.be Has all scenic routes marked with numbers 😊
Since we will probably not be able to go to other countries this summer because of corona. I'm planning to do this with some friends.
