Off on a tour with Jamoir and George Sportif (hes meeting us halfway) in just under a week, thought I would start a thread that we could update on.
Spending roughly 8 weeks on it, not sure of the mileage, 2000+ I should think.
Should be amazing though. We start off cycling the length of the Rhine, from Rotterdam to Lake Constance in Switzerland and then head down through the Alps to Genova to meet friends and then from Genova to Milan and then down to Orvieto just North of Rome.
Not sure about the return journey yet, cycle if the money lasts maybe.
We did a similar ride last year, a thread on here called London to Palermo. Enjoyed it so much which is why were going again.
If anyone knows any good places to visit then definitely let us know, we are fairly clueless as to what to see along the Rhine, aside from all the castles.
Also if anyone has any friends that have a garden/barn/patch of land that 3 friendly and polite cyclists might be able to pitch up on that would be most welcome and appreciated, like Baden-Powell said, We leave nothing but thanks.
This google maps route is very rough but it shows the general route well be taking.
