Welcome Kris. Where are you from in Belgium? My mom was born in Kanegem, a very small town. Many of our relatives still live in Belgium.

I see that your town is in the same northern (Flemish) area as where my mom is from. I will mention your town name to my mom and see if she's heard of it. Mom was 11 when she came over to the US, she does pretty well with her Flemish after all these years (she's 81 now).

So is that Flanders or Wallonia?
Both of them have a popular cycle racing community. Which has been completely ruined by the Covid virus.
