Parking Kalken (Noord)
Was asking around to get towards Paris. There were mainly Belgium plates, only few French and Dutch. Eventually took a ride to the next gas station south of Gentrating: 3/5, wait: 60 min 💬, ride: 31 km ↙

Busy gas station with lots of traffic from the UK. Found someone to take me on the ferry and straight to London from here. This was in mid August around 4 pm.

Busy gas station but everyone going just to Ghent. Almost no one going to Lille. Found a ride after 60 minutes but only because the driver took a big detour to help us out.

Good enough indeed - I got a ride to end of Belgium (Kortrijk) but a few French cars were full, so for Lille this is a valid spot, as well.

A not so busy petrol station, but here is already some traffic heading for UK and France. I got a ride here without much trouble, Flemish are good eggs :)
