Day 12 – Hamburg
I had an early and decent breakfast and continued to repair the bike. It took me a while to fix it since the wire has to be moved through the frame, but I finally made it and departed. I drove towards Kühlungsborn (a nice spot) and followed the coastline until Wismar. Since I left Wismar,…
Day 11 – Mecklenburg
Relatively early I started my tour and cycled through that flat region. The weather was beautiful and I really enjoyed that day. Especially the sunrise was so nice, that I have to share it! My destination, , Bad Doberan, was not so far away and I decided to go via Rostock. I wanted to see…
Day 10 – back to Germany
At day ten of this journey I again followed the coast and the track planned with Komoot. And, as expected, I again was following EV10/13. I normally plan my trips with Komoot and export them to import the GPX file to my Garmin. The maps of Komoot are normally very good and also on this…
Day 9 – rear derailleur defect
After a nice breakfast I departed and the I had to cycle a few Kilometer up hill. Then I arrived at the country road which I had to follow to go further West… The landscape was quite hilly and there was a little headwind, but compared to the storm I had at the first days,…
Day 7 – heading to Gdansk
On October 25th I had to go North West to Gdansk and I was cycling through many forests and the trees have changed their color, that was beautiful. I enjoyed cycling the almost empty roads. At about km 70, the navigation system sent me down a hill onto a field and the road became a…
Day 8 – Baltic Sea, Leba
In the morning I left the city and Komoot routed me to the Baltic Sea again and onto the EV10/13. And when I arrived at the sea I had to take the mandatory picture at the beach and then I followed the bike path up North. The track was very good and I was cycling…
Day 6 – Masuria
After a long breakfast I left the hotel and went to west. The weather was again beautiful and a little bit too cold, but I enjoyed the nice region and the little hills and I really had a lot of fun cycling out there. It was very good that there was almost no wind since…
Day 5 – Poland
It was really cold when I departed in the morning at 9am. I drove out of Kaunas and crossed a river and had to right a steep hill. Then I had to go down south again. Despite the temperature the weather was nice and the region was also beautiful. I was cycling a little street,…
Day 4 – Kaunas
In the morning I checked the weather forecast and found that the wind will come from that direction I had to go to. This meant another day with strong headwind of 30k/h or even moren. But at least it should not rain. First I had to cycle on a sandy path for about 2k and…
Day 3 – going down south
After a decent breakfast I departed and searched for a DIY store since I needed some zip ties. All of them were closed and at the third one I was told that there was a lock-down in Latvia and that all shops of that kind are closed. This was bad since I needed the zip…
Day 2 – Heading to Riga
Next day I cycled along the Baltic Sea down south to Riga. I departed at 7am and it was cold, roughly 5°C. I cycled to the sea and found my well know n bikeway (Eurovelo 10/13), which I followed until I came to the country road E67/B4. There was also a bikeway, which I followed…
Day 1 – On my way to Pärnu
On Oktober 19th I started my journey in Tallinn and after taking pictures at the sea, I left the city. Getting out of the Tallinn took me almost an hour. Sadly I had my first punkture after 15k and the seal milk did not fix it. Thus I had to install a hose, which fixed…
