Breaking news - Leuven has restaurant week!  For some reason this fact makes me very happy, and also makes me wonder about the origins of the wonderfulness that is restaurant week.

I've also learned some bike news - first, it's possible to get a really cool KUL bike (pictured above) if you're an employee of the university (does a PhD student count as an employee?).  

I've also learned that it's possible for students on bikes to receive tickets from the police in Leuven - the students are starting petitions on facebook to protest the superboetes ("super fines" - like 100 or 150 euro!) that are being leveed upon them.  So if I do get a snazzy KUL bike, I'll have to be careful not to run any red lights!
