An early start was required to get from Brussels to Liege given the 117km distance (although that does include a few small circles to find a suitable bakery for lunch).

We've come to the conclusion that a lot of the large cities in Belgium are in fact holes. Both Brussels and Liege feature steep descents into the city centre and then big climbs back out the other side. Admittedly Brugge isn't in a hole but as the door-to-door-door-salesman we met at lunch said, "Brugge isn't really part of Belgium - it's just a town created for the tourists".
