In the official paper with information from our village government, they had an advertisement, showing off a trailer for a bicycle, which you can pull along on tours. The big advantage: you can just crash at the roadside when you are tired, grab some sleep and coutinue. Not so easy with a tent – that’s forbidden. So I booked one…
Just a few pics – GORUCK and Anomaly. This entry comes super late, so I just didn’t have writing time.
Oh yeah. Last year. Kind of I feel that I have picked up all the travels which I missed out on the year before. I was in a lot of new places. Saw new places, regions, countries. First time ever in Norway. Learning about this world, cycling over borders. Starting post-pan-Europe bikepath cycling. But I also am observing our world.…
Another Flix bus trip for yet another ingress event. And yet another anomaly which was interesting – we did lose again – and again in Europe. But then – cycling through Reims, incoming town I rode through areas which were definitely inhabited by the poorer part of the population. Their TGV station is way out of town so I covered…
So, first post-paneurope trail done They are different, somehow – while Paneuropa wasn’t marked everywhere, same as Eurovelo 12, the px was more accurate with Paneuropa. Long diagonal lines when there are actually curvy streets – that does confuse. Especially when checking all the time if I am still on track.That was super annoying. And does delay for it falsifies…
My Resistance friend who already had made it to Gothenburg wrote, that he’d in Gothenborg this evening, still. I was a bit in between maximizing bike distance and visiting and actually seeing the city of Gothenborg. So I decided for the sevond, especially after my landlord in the Stromsted-suburb had told me that there was a train from Stromsted Station…
So I had a good night’s sleep. The motel did offer breakfast, and by then I also had payment down (the lady at the reception had a bit trouble with the EC card reader). For some reason the hotel owners did not want me to eat frogs for breakfast….. Rygge, the town where I had stayed is not really large…
Goodbye Oslo, here I come, Eurovelo. Europe is covered with a network of bicycle pathways, connecting Europe, connecting countries, showing beautiful places, reliving history, so I thought. So I took a close look at this network. Since I have finished the Pan Europe bike path I was on the lookout for a new project. WOuld it be the „around the…
Mission day. Six missions and the participation in Operation Clear Field – yet another GORUCK event. This time there are XF teams as well as mono-Faction teams roaming the city on a wild scavenger hunt which includes photos, videos, PT, and lots of coolpoints. CadreBarbarossa gave us the task sheet digitally (after the rainy event in Athens where we needed…
So on the ferry, enjoying the calm of the cabin, enjoying the shopping-mall area, the coffee, the buffet in the evening, which was more than luxurious, enjoying the sunset, the sounds of a ship peacefulling tugging her distance into the ocean. having a good nights sleep. marvelling if the down vests were worth getting – the bright ones in the…
