Rent a decent road bike in Flanders?
Moderators: robbosmans, Moderator Team
I'll be in Oudenaarde April 9 to 12, cannot bring my own bicycle and am hoping for help finding a decent road bike to rent. Any help would be very appreciated as so far I haven't been able to get a response from the shops I've contacted by email. Thank you, Frank

'Het Verzet' in Astene (Deinze) is one of the better bicycle renting spot in the surroundings of Ghent and Oudenaarde. Lots of types, different sizes and for the period that you require. You tried them already?
All you will need is a little bit of struggle with Dutch language

Probably way too late but maybe for future users: You could also rent road bikes for Tour of Flanders at:
