Kalmar To Paris
My first longer tour on bike.
3 Weeks and 1450 km from Kalmar to Eiffeltower in Paris.
Osnabrück and Maastricht I remember with a positiv mind
My itinerary was too short planned to experience Paris as it is known but Eiffeltowe was something x-tra
After this bike ride I was sold for touring rides
2009
Around Eire
3 Weeks and 810 km crossing the green island Eire
Dublin – Galway and Cliffs oh Moher was the main goal.
Whiskey testing in Midleton and some paints of Guinness beer.
Dublin is worth a visit, Temple Bar Area, Guinness Storhouse.
Eire or Ireland is perfect for cycling adventures. Lots of network of roads and especially small roads, eg boreens means you
don’t need super planning, just follow your nose
2010
North Italy
3 weeks and 1200 km from Innsbruck over Brennerpass to visit Venedig, Pisa.
Lago di Garda is beautiful but expensive. I found both Venedig and Pisa over advertised.
The coastline by Ligurian sea was someting else to join and best of all was Cinque Terra.
Five small villages in a row along Ligurian sea with houses in colors like rainbow.
Never miss to vist these divinely beautiful villages… Never!
