It's not for me...it's for a friend. (coughs, looks away)

i had a bunch made up...i give them to club-mates after they've been earned thru sufficient hours doing whine-free flandrian rides in the springtime doo-doo weather we have in the midwest.

wally, that flag is a non official flag used by the rightwinged extremist political party of belgium (vlaams belang). they use it to make a political statement against the influence of the wallonian community in belgium. the official flag has the lion of flanders with a red tongue and red griffs. i prefer the official version ;-)

Sorry was referring to current nationalist movements in continental Europe, you're right there is also left wing nationalism. I wouldn't classify anc as nationalists though? And the IRA are republicans. Anyway whatevs.. Vlaanderen vooruit!!

I thought political discussions were off-the-table here at Paceline.
