The Amsterdam-Munich Express
tour started July 2012, submitted 20 August 2012 This year's summer tour started in Amsterdam. After visiting Haarlem und then Leiden, we continued on to Den Haag, Utrecht and Arnhem. We visited the Veluwe National Park, crossed the border at Bocholt and rode on to Münster and then Kassel for this year's Documenta. We then followed the Fulda, Sinn , Main and Altmühl river valleys - all separated by hills that had to be crossed. When we reached the Danube, we felt we were almost home and it was smooth sailing to Munich. |

A tour to explore hidden Styrian summits
tour started June 2012, submitted 30 June 2012 Road bike Tour to Wildalpen (Styria/Austria). We ignored the very hot weather and made the tour... With light luggage we made this day 115 kilometers. Prime distance we did per train (Moedling to Payerbach). Then the bicycle...: 1st summit the Preiner Gscheid (height 1.070 meters above sea level) down to Mürzsteg and then 2nd summit: the Niederalpl. A 1.221 meters high connecting summit. For bicyclists rather steep and long (My estimate: 10% slope). My advise: avoid this summit, when not in mood... We have been heading for Wildalpen, found a perfect (affordable) 4**** hotel and enjoyed the evening on a natural pool. The little town Wildalpen is embedded in the 'Salza'-valley. The waters are wild. like the upper Enns river. We have seen many sport kayak riders. We consider to go again to this area, just to share the good times with the paddlers. No one would believe in us, saying, we have been riding home in one day. Hitting Goestling, Lunz, Gaming, St. Anton on Jesnitz, Frankenfels, Kirchberg, St.Poelten. At St.Poelten a bus has taken us back home. Nevertheless this day ended again with 123 kilometers. Hot, hot... Enjoy the pictures below. Good luck to all our followers. |

Cycle Tour in the Po Valley
tour started May 2012, submitted 17 June 2012 Italy, Italy, why Italy? We live in Munich and Italy is close and yet foreign. It's easy to get there by train with our bikes and its culture will never cease to lure us - its food, language, architecture, flair. We chose this stretch along the Po for its abundance of beautiful towns and cities and May is a perfect time to open the cycling season. On this two-week tour we didn't stick strictly to the Po, but meandered off when a city interested us or we hadn't been there before. |

Overland touring
tour started June 2012, submitted 8 June 2012 It's hard to describe the feeling when you're just about to start an extended overland trip - it's even harder to describe the feeling when that trip is about to end, but the end of one trip however means that you are that little bit closer to the beginning of the next adventure. We completed our 1st overland trip after 545 days on the road, traveling just over 70,000km and crossing 35 countries. Our 2nd trip was always going to happen, it was just a matter of deciding how, when and where and after a lot of deliberation we finally decided on the next adventure. Some people think it's a bit extreme when comparing it to our trip from Oz to Cape Town, but what would life really be like without a bit of adventure and challenges. After all, we are all here to live life...! A bicycle! Yes, that's right, a bicycle!! We are hoping to cover about 20,000 km over a planned 12 month period starting in Indonesia, heading north from there through SE Asia into southern China before making a u-turn to go south once again through Vietnam before hopping onto a plane to continue in India to finally reach Nepal. |
Cammino di Sant'Antonio-percorso Muson dei Sassi
tour started May 2012, submitted 4 June 2012 language: it
L'itinerario ciclabile inaugurato nel 2009 parte da Cadoneghe e ripercorre il "cammino di Sant'Antonio" fino a Camposampiero. In realtà il Santo fece questo percorso nel senso inverso: trovandosi a Camposampiero quasi morente, volle giungere a Padova dove morì il 13 giugno del 1231. The cycle route opened in 2009 starts from Cadoneghe and traces the "journey of St. Anthony" until Camposampiero. In reality, the Holy One did this route in reverse: finding Camposampiero almost dying, he wanted to come to Padua where he died 13 June 1231. |
A mountain bike tour to the Berounka valley (Czech Republik)
tour started September 1999, submitted 30 May 2012 Berounka is a little town, West of Praha, the capital city of the Czech republic. The tour itself is just a day ride, but in a fairytale landscape. Not easy to find anymore in good old Europe. So peaceful, so warm and nice. In each little village an old restaurant to 're-fuel' ones body... With what? Czech beer, charged as top brand. Needless to say, we do it again! Enjoy the pictures. Good luck to our followers! |

Cicloturismo in Norvegia
tour started August 2012, submitted 9 May 2012 language: it
Cicloturismo in Norvegia, seconda parte - Rallarvegen. Dagali - Haugastol: 50 km circa. Nonostante viaggi solo, mi rendo conto di trovarmi a mio agio. Il territorio è vasto e la percezione dello spazio è difficile da avere: oltre il panorama all'orizzonte, ancora paesaggio, che anch'esso finisce in un altro. Cosi via fino a darmi la sensazione di infinito. segue... Cycle Tourism in Norway, Part II - Rallarvegen Dagali - Haugastol: 50 km. Despite traveling alone, I am aware of being at ease. The territory is vast and the perception of space is hard to achieve: the view over the horizon, even the landscape, which also ends in another. So on up to give me the feeling of infinity...... |
Budapest in bicicletta
tour started April 2012, submitted 3 May 2012 language: it
La bicicletta aiuta a scoprire anche questa bellissima capitale. Attraversata dalla lunga via ciclabile denominata Eurovelo 6 (Nantes-Odessa), la città Budapest si presenta all'appuntamento con il turismo in bicicletta, ben organizzata e sorprendente. In Ungheria le piste ciclabili stanno crescendo ma anche le strade "amiche dei ciclisti", contrassegnate da un simbolo verde e poco trafficate, si prestano bene al cicloturismo. |

We spent a day of at the beautiful Island Hydra (no cars...!) |
Cicloturismo in Norvegia
tour started August 2011, submitted 13 April 2012 language: it
Cicloturismo in Norvegia: "quando la strada si fa dura i pensieri diventano poesia" Il mio viaggio in Norvegia è iniziato quando lo pensai un pomeriggio. Comodamente seduto in auto con degli amici incrociammo due ciclisti bardati di tutto punto con bagagli al seguito che stavano affrontando una impegnativa salita. Avevamo già vissuto la severità di quei luoghi e promisi a me stesso di rifarlo sulle due ruote. Il fascino di dura conquista che trasmettevano quei due impavidi, mi scosse. Lasciati condurre.... A journey begins when you begin to think and ends when you stop to remember. My trip to Norway began when I thought of an afternoon. Comfortably seated in the car with some friends we passed two cyclists decked with luggage in tow who were facing a challenging climb. We had already experienced the severity of those places and I promised myself to do it again on two wheels. The charm of those two tough wins that played fearless, shook me. |
Mallorca Training Tour 2012
tour started March 2012, submitted 2 April 2012 The Spain Island of Majorca is always a good choice for winter-weary bicyclists to warm up the lazy bones. It is advisable to check the hotel prices which vary from • 20,- to • 70,-. Quoted prices for half board. Attention, never take an unknown hotel below three star. It will never fulfill a bicyclist expectation. Sometimes even three-star hotel are questionable. I have rented the bike by paying the rent via PayPal in advance. The rent is more or less the same as the airfare price to transport a bicycle. My dealer has taken the bicycle right to my hotel. Great service! On my tour, I have been lucky, only two cold days. Nevertheless, I kept on riding... One week = sweet 740 kilometers. For me, it looked the Puig Major road has been extended (or my 'winter-weary' body came down to an utmost weak point). Enjoy the report and the pictures. Good luck to all followers. |
Cicloturismo in Lituanua - Kaunas e Vilnius
tour started June 2011, submitted 20 March 2012 language: it, en
Terza ed ultima descrizione del tour da Riga A Vilnius. Sebbene il centro storico di Kaunas sia facilmente visitabile a piedi, vale la pena utilizzare la bicicletta per vedere aldilà della Old Town e per raggiungere siti importanti della periferia. Lungo i due fiumi che la attraversano e sopra i colli che la circondano, si trovano scorci insoliti e pittoreschi. La bicicletta aiuta a raggiungere ogni punto e a godere in libertà i suoi punti migliori. Pochi i chilometri per raggiungere "Devintojo Forto Muziejus" (qualche scritta in più non guasterebbe) e la sua zona monumentale costruita sull'area del forte che fu l'ultima strenua resistenza contro l'invasione russa. Third and final description of the tour from Riga to Vilnius. Although the old town of Kaunas is easily explored on foot, it's worth using the bicycle to see beyond the Old Town and to reach important places in the suburbs. Along the two rivers that flow through and above the hills that surround it, are unusual and picturesque views. The bicycle helps get anywhere and enjoy freedom in their best points. A few kilometers to reach the "Devintojo Forto Muziejus" (written a few more would not hurt) and his monumental area of the fort that was built on the last stand against the Russian invasion. |

Greedy Euro Bike Tour
tour started 2012, submitted 9 March 2012 Europe: France, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Russia, Turkey, Bulgaria, Greece, Italy, Holland, Belgium, Denmark, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco
language: en, it
Da lì a là is an Italian expression meaning roughly hither and thither, and this summarize my will, my restless temper of changing place every so often. I'm biking around Europe stopping from time to time when my attention is captured by an outstanding recipe a traditional food or a weird one. Pedalling alone is just fine, but together with other cyclists, especially from the country I'll be riding at the moment is just fantastic: less fatigue, more fun. You can get a look at the Euro-Tour map to get a gist of what'll be the route I'll follow in this year. If you're biking in the some zone, or nearby or you're going to start something similar and you'll like to have a ride together, let me know. Get in touch! Sys |
Aquitania e Perigord tra corsi d'acqua e borghi medioevali.
tour started August 2011, submitted 7 March 2012 language: it
Due settimane in bicicletta lungo le vie percorse dagli antichi pellegrini. Pedalare in agosto nelle regioni francesi di Aquitania e Perigord significa immergersi in un paesaggio verdissimo e poco trafficato, con abbazie arroccate e villaggi medievali, ma vuol dire anche salire, salire e ridiscendere continuamente, sotto un caldo torrido al fianco di fiumi sinuosi ed affollatissimi. tappe del percorso:

Dall'Adriatico al Baltico - Da Trieste a Riga 3^ parte
tour started July 2012, submitted 1 March 2012 " The show must go on", non ho alternative, riparto. Gli spazi si dilatano e anche qui, come in Polonia tra un paese e l'altro ci sono 10-15 chilometri di nulla, prati incolti, strette mulattiere sterrate che si diramano verso il nulla, rare mucche al pascolo e camioncini catapultati dalla macchina del tempo. Un chiosco di legno, in centro città è l'unica opportunità che ho per comprare qualcosa da mangiare, In pochi metri quadrati sono esposti i più disparati generi alimentari e non. Sembra il codice fiscale di un supermercato. Esco e trovo quattro bambini attratti dalla mia bici. |
Lituania II^- da Klaipeda a Kaunas
tour started June 2011, submitted 26 February 2012 language: it
Da Klaipéda a Pagégiai 100 km. Sulla mappa delle ciclabili della Lituania, il percorso qui descritto fino a Siluté, prende il nome di Percorso Ciclabile della Lituania Occidentale. Si esce dalla città seguendo la ciclabile della costa segnata con il n. 10 già più volte incontrata, che si allontana dal centro attraversando la zona commerciale (Metropolis) e portuale. Una ciclopista nuova, ben segnalata con attraversamenti sicuri ai semafori. Poi necessita un po' di attenzione per prendere sulla sinistra la ciclabile per Priekulè mentre la 10 prosegue per Gargzdai. Naturalmente una buona mappa della città aiuta molto. Segue... |

Short tour of the Alpes Maritimes
tour started September 2008, submitted 11 February 2012 My tour of the Alpes Maritimes was the most spectacular of all ones I've undertaken to date. Travelling in the first week of September, the weather was good and the roads empty. As expected, the food was great. Some of the overnight stays, however, could have been better. If I had it to do again, I think it could be the perfect trip. Here you will find details of the trip, maps and recommendations on where and where not to stay. |

Dall' Adriatico al Baltico, da Trieste a Riga seconda parte
tour started July 2011, submitted 8 February 2012 Seconda parte di 2.200 km. in bicicletta da Trieste a Riga Katovice: un' edicola con esposti quotidiani e cavolfiori (immagino di propria produzione), un tram che si regge a stenti quasi investe un Suv fresco di concessionaria e oltre una strada ciottolata, una zona commerciale degna di qualsiasi città italiana: supermercato, articoli sportivi, bricolage e giardinaggio. Resto senza parole. Noiosa pianura , dove l'unica cosa da fare è contare i chilometri mancanti a Chestokova. segue... |

Bicycle tour in the French Alps: completing the collection of paved ascents going above 2000 m
tour started June 2011, submitted 2 February 2012 After my previous year, when I cycled up to all of the paved ascents of the Pyrenées above 2000m, for this bicycle tour my aim was to complete the collection of the paved roads above 2000 m in the French Alps. That meant visiting hardly known climbs, like for example Parking du Laus (2110 m) by Lac Allos, or Chalet Laval, Lac Besson (2090 m) above Alpe d’Huez, or the climb to Plan d’Aval and Plan du Lac (2362 m), about which there were no cycling informations on the internet, although it is a wonderful road. Besides these climbs I visited well known cols, passes, where I was indulging in nostalgia. Almost every 2nd day I had few hour long rain, and during the tour I cycled minimum 5 times in rain above 2000 m, but fortunately I was lucky on the „milestone-days”: when I climbed La Bonette (2802 m), Col du Galibier under clear skies and Col de l’Iseran. With cycling up to Courchevel (2030 m) I reached my aim: I cycled up to all of the asphalted roads of the French Alps finishing above 2000 m. The travelogue contains about minimum 15 minutes long videos about each day. |
Dall' Adriatico al Baltico, da Trieste a Riga
tour started July 2011, submitted 31 January 2012 language: it
Il mare, la mia insegnante di inglese ed Auschwitz. Tre cose che apparentemente non hanno nulla in comune, ma che in realtà sono le basi che hanno fatto nascere questo ciclo-viaggio. Un viaggio dall' Adriatico al Baltico, la visita ad Oswiecim ( nome polacco di Auschwitz) e un salto a Riga, città natale della mia insegnante di inglese. Cartine alla mano, è stato sufficiente tirate una traccia (o meglio una Riga) aggiungere qualche deviazione turistica ed ecco preparato un viaggio. |
Bicycle tours on steep and wonderful ascents of Tirol & South Tirol (with videos)
tour started May 2011, submitted 29 January 2012 In May, 2011 I visited Tirol & South Tirol to cycle up to few ascents going above 2000m which I missed and hadn't already cycled. I returned to the wonderful Passo Gardena, which was the 1st pass above 2000m for me, where I cycled 15 years before. AFter Sella I climbed to Rifugio Gardeccia (1949 m), which was Giro d'Italia stage finish 2 days later, and finished the day with the similarly steep, Pampeago / Zischgalm (2000 m). On my last day I visited one of the hardest ascents of Austria, Idalpe (2320 m) with its 13-17% steep kilometers and finished the day with the hardly known mountain road to Belpiano / Schöneben (2105 m), which is situated by the Lago di Resia, not far from the Italian border. I arrived at the camp at 2 am, after cycling the last 2 hours in rain, but feeling well: during the 4 days I cycled up to another 6 new climbs for me and remained only ca. 35 pieces to have the complete collection of the Alps above 2000 m. |
