This March made me so sore…But the next morning things were already better. Cycling utilizes different muscles than walking so I could actually follow my plan to cycle towards Gothenburg I decided that around 40km per day were enough, so I could see the landscape, and enjoy the ride. We started with a really good breakfast at this nearby cafe,…
So, this was my opponent of which I was very very apprehensive. I have been starting a MegaMarsch evnt in Cologne, a few years back, when I just noticed, that my backbone is not happy about the topic of cycling and triathlon. So I thought a 100km walk/hile would be a worthy endeavour, I signed up, got to the start…
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…
Finally. Family vacation in Chicago again. I did not expect that I’d feel so much home there, as I then was. We decided to choose a different time in the year, not in Summer. For once we did not want the dirt of election campaigns. And there was an eclipse waiting to happen. This also meant, I put in my…
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…
There’s a song by Manfred Siebald – him asking her if she’s really really going away on travels again. Somehow this Summer feels like that. I have booked a trip with my sister – elective sister. This time it is not Vlissingen. This time it is Ambleteuse, France. Just because we stumbled through the maps of various apartment rentals along…
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…
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…
