Following the boarder in Germany is harder than you could imagine
I've picked up my bicycle at the bicycle shop. The gear shifting is much better now. I have a plan to reach Eschwege today. Ready for a new day. I'm motivated to go far, but I have to mention 1 thing. I haven't only been looking for repair and parts for my gear, I've...
I feel like «King of the mountain» after cycling 25% climbs on gravel with my 35Kg trailer!
I know that the mountain is waiting for me, the only thing I don't know is how the road standard is on the route I'm taking, I have my suspicions. Anyway, I am ready for climbing and I will do it with a smile! Ilsenburg is a small nice town. Many of the people walking...
Cycling to Ilsenburg, the foot of the Hartz mountain
Waking up to beautiful weather is always amazing, but waking up to these conditions after a day like yesterday is indescribable. I am so ready for a long day along "The Iron Curtain". It's funny how you can go from a 29 Euro camping along the coast to a 7 Euro camping...
I’ve got the recipe to keep going in heavy rain….I’m just smiling while siiiinging in the rain
I am ready for a new day after a good night sleep here in Salzwedel. The weather report prepares me for heavy rain. At the moment the sun is shining, but how long will it last? I've picked up my bicycle from the garage, had my breakfast and checked out. Outside I met...
Rainy days in Germany along «The Iron Curtain»
I've had a nice evening in Dömitz. Now I'm ready for a new day on the bicycle. Not sure it it's gonna be rainy or not... Time will tell! I'm at breakfast at 9am. All the other cyclists are there as well. It's a small cosy room where you share the tables with the...
Cycling from West Germany to East…The difference hit me in the face, HUGE!
This morning I woke up to the sound of the rain hitting my tent. It's my second day on the bike alone. I will cross over to east Germany and cycle on the boarder itself. It's early morning. I'm awake when I get an sms from Lillian, she's wishing me good luck with the...
Alone on the bike again, cycling south to the river Elbe
It's Lillian's last day here in Germany. She's heading home to Norway today. I will head south and just see how far i will go. I can't believe it. When we woke up yesterday morning the plan was that Lillian would cycle further on with me. Reality is that she's going...
Lübeck here we come! My bicycle is ready for maintenance and we’re ready to enjoy a day off!
The sun is shining and we are heading to Lübeck, which basically have been Lillian's goal with the trip. We're ready for a new day on the road and then my bike will get some maintenance and we'll relax for a day. I've been cycling with a feeling that Lillian will go...
Cycling in the rain from Rerik to Boltenhagen
It's raining!!! It's an amazing feeling to stay inside the tent and listen to the rain. But when you realize that you need to wake up and start packing the completely wet tent...Then you can start to reconsider! We're trying to get as close as possible to Lübeck...
Cycling to Rerik after a night at the noisy and dirty camp site in Graal Muritz
The camp site in Graal Muritz has definately been one of the campings where it's been hard to sleep. Hard ground and a lot of noise during the evening/night. Anyway, we are ready to cycle to Rerik and one of the camp sites there! Our evening in Graal Muritz was nice....
Lubeck is getting closer, which means that after that I won’t see the coast again until Bulgaria.
We had a good night in the tent in Zingst. To be honest, we're sleeping better and longer in the tent than in a bed. We have a plan to cycle just above 50Km today and are stopping at a camping in Graal Muritz. It was a bit hard to wake up today, we sleep so well. The...
Enjoying good days on the bicycle along the german coast line!
We had a nice evening in Stralsund and a good night sleep. Nothing is better than waking up to a good breakfast and coffee. We're ready for a new day here in Germany! We're in the middle of Stralsund, I believe Lillian is a bit afraid that today will be hard since...
