I'm off to Belgium for a few days and plan to take my bike, I'll be at the spa circuit and was wondering if there are any nice places around there to cycle to or nice roads to loop around? :D

Happy to take you for a ride to Flanders/Wallonia, but I am unfortunately in Brussels...

nice area, I did the leige- bastone-leige sportive a couple of years ago, goes right past Spa, via Stavalot & Stourmont. I stayed up near Aubel, theres a nice abbey/brewery near there.

I rode there a couple of years ago and still have the routes on Strava. Please dm me and I'll guide you to them.

I've been able to find quite a few tracks on GPSies.com. Registration is optional and it's quite easy to use - select start location and desired distance as well as some other parameters and you get available tracks.

Some examples:

In any case, it's a beautiful area to cycle in and I'm sure you won't have any trouble finding cool routes to ride.
