TTT 1999 05 Rondje Peel
This route was brought to you by:

Route Summary
Since the beginning of the 1990s, Promotor has been issuing the so-called TankTasTochten. You understand that the name is still from the GPS-free era, when motorcyclists still searched their way on inland roads with a road book in the tank bag or routerol.

The 173 ANWB Promoter TankTasTochten (TTT) were scanned by Henry ten Dam and signed by Leon Stolk in Mapsource and later placed as a Track in a .gpx file. These have been made available with the approval of ANWB Promotor via the website of MrGPS so that everyone can enjoy it. The 1st TTT is from 1992, so the route may be slightly different from the original.

I checked all route points and placed them neatly on the road. Also, if necessary, I have put the start point and end point of the route a bit further apart to avoid navigating directly to the end point and I have added the POI files from the start and end point just like a possible stopping point.

Finally, I created the route for TomTom, Garmin and MyRoute-app Navigation users.

With thanks to Henry, Leon, MrGPS and Promoter.

RouteXpert Review
This TTT has the start and end points in Sterksel and is mainly about small roads. Sterksel, home of Carnival Association De Ossedrijvers.
The ox in Sterksel:
This image recalls the mining activities, in which 14 oxen were also deployed. It was designed and made by locals and plays a role during carnival. A young man who is not yet married at the age of 30 has 'seen the ox' and that does not go unnoticed by the victim. (Source: Wikipedia).

From Sterksel via Maarheeze to Heibloem in Limburg, and then via Sevenum to Ysselsteyn. German soldiers and bad Dutch from the Second World War are buried in the Limburg village of Ysselsteyn.

Nowhere else in the Netherlands are so many dead people from the Second World War together as in the Limburg village of Ysselsteyn. They are German soldiers and bad Dutchmen, so that cemetery is unknown to many people. (Source: Trouw).

The German military cemetery at Timmermannsweg 75 in Ysselsteyn (Limburg) is the largest military cemetery in the Netherlands with 31,598 dead. It is also the only German military cemetery in the Netherlands. German soldiers of the Second World War were mostly buried there. There are also Dutch people who fell in German military service (in particular the SS). (Source: Wikipedia).

Because I have not (yet) driven this route myself, this route gets 3 stars.

Route details:
Enough options to stop for coffee and / or lunch along the way.
08-06-2019: Route adjusted in connection with a driving ban for cars and motorbikes in Nederweert.

Limburg
About this region
Limburg (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈlɪmbʏr(ə)x] (About this soundlisten)) is the southernmost of the 12 provinces of the Netherlands. The province is bordered by the province of Gelderland to the north and by North Brabant to its west. Its long eastern boundary forms the international border with the state of North Rhine-Westphalia in Germany. To the west is the international border with the similarly named Belgian province of Limburg, part of which is delineated by the river Meuse. The Vaalserberg is on the extreme south-eastern point, marking the tripoint of the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium.

Limburg's major cities are the provincial capital Maastricht (pop. 121,565[5]), as well as Venlo (pop. 101,603) in the Northeast, and Sittard-Geleen (pop. 92,661) and Heerlen (pop. 86,832) in the south. More than half of the population, approximately 650,000 people, live in the south of Limburg, which corresponds to roughly one-third of the province's area proper. In South Limburg, most people live in the urban agglomerations of Maastricht, Parkstad and Sittard-Geleen.

Brabant, Brabant conviviality, bon vivants and who does not know the song by Guus Meeuwis about Brabant? "And then I think of Brabant, because there is still light burning there" and that is true, because the City of Light is in Brabant, in Eindhoven that is, but Eindhoven is also known as the match city of the Netherlands. The annual light festival (GLOW) in Eindhoven shows breathtaking lighting techniques, something you must see once.

But not only light, matches and Brabant cosiness in Brabant, but also a very beautiful province to tour by car or motorcycle and enjoy all the beauty that the province of Brabant has to offer. For this, the MyRoute app RouteXpert has put together a Top 10 of Car and Motorcycle routes for you.

The 10 most beautiful car and motorcycle routes in Limburg
Limburg, who thinks of Limburg, thinks of flan, coal mines, marl and the hill country. The coal mines have been closed for almost 40 years, the last load of coal was brought up from the Oranje-Nassau coal mine in Heerlen on 31 December and, as they say, South Limburg was transformed from Black to Green and unfortunately there is still little left. view of this period.

But not only pie, marl and coal in Limburg, but also a very beautiful province to tour by car or motorcycle and enjoy all the beauty that the province of Limburg has to offer. For this, the MyRoute app RouteXpert has put together a Top 10 of Car and Motorcycle routes for you.
