Deman Classics 2025
On June 14, 2025, " Deman Brussels " and " Proximus Privilege " organized the 2nd edition of their invitation-only tourist rally.
Participants were welcomed under the big top at the Mettet circuit, where they enjoyed a complimentary brunch, then completed a few laps of the circuit in their own cars before reading the rally roadbook.
180 km were on the program, on a mix of magnificent roads in the province of Namur, as well as an incursion into the French Ardennes.
First stop, the farm of the château de Leignon with a visit to the brewery, the artisanal chocolate factory and a small tasting of the local production.
Isabelle Arpin's gourmet restaurant, "L'Auberge de Leignon", is also located in the courtyard of the Château de Leignon farm.
Then it's on to Durbuy via winding, wooded roads overlooking valleys that drew the admiration of participants with their breathtaking views; it was like being in a foreign mountain landscape!
Finally, before the amazed eyes of the many tourists present, the day's finale took place on Durbuy's "Place aux Foires", followed by a sumptuous dinner concocted by chef Wout Bru.
What can we learn from this 2nd edition?
Particularly pleasant weather, a route appreciated by all participants for its ease of reading the roadbook and its variety thanks to the choice of roads in good condition (yes!), smiles of happiness all day long: thank you to all participants for sharing this good mood and conviviality.
