That looks like a good route. Not sure yet but hopefully have two weeks. Would prefer to it easy and have the opurtunity to stop of at places instead of being on the clock knowing I have to get through a certain number of miles a day.
Plan is to start in Basel, so miss most of Switzerland (mountains) and head along towards the Hook of Holland, to get a ferry back to the U.K. No concrete plans just yet, I actually will have to start to think about it soon.
You going solo?
Poetic-
Nice. There's a lovely little town along the Rhine called Eltville you should check out. (That's where I'll be starting from - aunt and uncle live there). It's a nice spot for a swim and glass of wine when you're up that way.
And yup, will be my first ever solo trip - both nervous and excited... What are you riding? I need to streamline my kit for going it alone!
speculoos
Not quite sure yet, but I think I'll give myself 6 or 7 days. But in total, I have about 9 days to do the ride, get the Eurostar to London and nip to Bristol before getting back to Copenhagen for work... So I might be rushing a bit!
I reckon I'll try to ride about 70-100miles per day while I'm on the flat roads for the first 3 days or so, and then slow it down when I get to Switzerland and the mountains - I'm just hoping they don't kill me..
What are you thinking? Will you be doing the full shebang from source to mouth?
