I asked around to get towards Brussels, but since I was going to Paris, I searched for a ride to the ring of Brussels, to a suitable motorway entrance. Most people went to Leuven or the next exit.

Heading to Belgium. Arrived here at 13.30 on a Friday, left at 8.45 the next morning. Spent the first 3 hours thumbing at the exit on the side of the road, then started doing laps of the car park and asking people. No luck, no-one even going towards Europe. More European plates earlier in the afternoon but by early evening it was mostly UK cars. Lots of Polish vans and European trucks but none of them seemed at all willing. Had about 6-7 offers of lifts to Ashford/Folkestone/Dover, but held out for the channel crossing. Lost hope by 7pm, so put up my tent in the woods before it got too dark. Started again at 6.45 the next morning. On my 3rd lap of the car park I found a German couple who took me all the way to my destination in Belgium! My sense is that asking people directly is much more likely to pay out with a lift over the channel, but thumbing by the exit can get you to Dover pretty quickly.

I got a ride after ten minutes on the offramp towards Hasselt/Genk, to the next gas station Esso (Weezemaal).

Heading to the UK. Waited 1h45 with a sign saying Gent. 5 cars stopped and offered a lift to Brussels or the highway, 6th one took me to Drongen petrol station past Gent.

Very quickly made my way from Wageningen to Leuven. I got a straight ride with a Belgian couple to Leuven as they were heading to Charleroi.

Best spot to hitch to Brussels, plenty of space for a car to pull over.

Good spot to either hitch to Tienen or to the jonction with the N25 (at the Carrefour) that will lead to the E40. You might have to walk a bit to find a good spot where a car can pull over as this area is a side road parking

Direction East, would be a good spot to reach Cologne or even Maastricht

You can hitch a ride East - West with a sign along the E40, you can also simply walk all the way down to the E40 and hitch from the On-Ramp.

Direction Brussels: Possibility to hitch before or on the On-Ramp. (Note that from October 2007 Onwards the direction East On-Ramp is closed for construction purposes until further notice)

you have to walk a little next to the road if coming from the roundabout.
then you will get to a piece that you have plenty room for cars to stop. here you can go direction luik or E40
