It has been some time since I started my Paneuropa bike path project. More – it was right when we moved to Kronau and I did my long distance training, passing this little blue and yellow sign, me reading „Paneuropa bike path“ and I set my mind on riding the whole thing. Maybe even earlier, when I watched a documentary…
So. Home again. Laundry washed.Thoughts…So I met this couple – a male and a female cyclist from New Zealand.They take six weeks vacation time to cycle Germany.And they just had stoppped for a moment to savor the plums which grew along the way. While eating some more of the juicy fruits, we discussed differences – weather patterns and insect population.…
First things first. Breakfast in Schwaebisch Hall. They had muffin-ish thingies, like omelets and pached egs, including herbs and/or bacon.And coffee, of course.Carb loading.I already had some good carbs the day before – in the shape of potatoes. Now the breadrolls. When I had woken up I had noticed that my special contraption I had made for my watch to…

This is pretty much where I ended the second leg. I had ridden from Kronau to Mosbach…
Two more legs of the PanEurope Bike path.I will not get to Prague or even Nuremberg but I want to get a bit farther East than Heilbronn.Now my first planning tool was google maps – plus the attempt to find a GPS which fits with my Garmin system.Again gpsies was the way to go…Google maps because I have to take…
This is the other project: the European long distance hike… It goes North South… As posted before – at the end I’d like to have hiked and/or biked all of Europe.Why? Because connections best happen person to person. Face to face.And because I want to… training for endurance. Maybe for a Megamarsch type event. Sightseeing at places which are not…
A few times it crossed my mind that this project was crazy. I had back issues, knee issues, now Achilles issues.I fell from my bike once.I have DNFed one half Iron race, how come I wanted to finish 500km?This project is crazy and this project is not over.Who am I to try pinpointing Europe, the European idea?The next route goes…
oul. I heard them partying all night, through the window of my room.This trip was planned to be somewhat open ended. If I rode slower, I could append a day or two. That’s why I did this in the vacation time. But then – each additional day adds costs for lodging, food, etc.I was not sure if I could manage…
