For all the pedal pushers out there that love long distance cycling. There are no gear requirements and no 'minimum distances' here.

Have you ridden for a cheeky overnighter or a 3 year global trek? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

Have you got panniers, bikepacking bags or just a backpack with the essentials? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

Have you got the latest in carbon engineering or your dads old 10 speed from the 70's? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

Sweet. How's the weather been for you? I just know that it was raining a lot in germany but looks good now. Hope you find some nice shelters along the way :)

I planned the rain into my travels but it became a lot worse and I ended up just sitting around https://p.drkt.eu/2024/wet.jpg

Oh man that must have been a bummer summer so far in the area. Are you still travelling? Or did you finish right in time for the sun to come out ;)

Nah I took a train home. I was so demoralized by horrible sleep and the wet weather. I didn't want to spend my weekend being miserable on a bicycle
