Sept 5 I looked at the weather on the night of the fourth a little bit after I posted on the blog and I noticed that for the next 3 days it would be in the high 80s and lower 90s outside. I am not a guy who rides well in heat, so I decidedContinue reading “Sept 5 – Sept 8”

August 31 We left Paris today. I spent my morning cleaning the Airbnb while Henry and Sara yelled at me telling me I didn’t have to because it wasn’t my job, then at 10:45 we met with the Airbnb hosts and returned our keys. By 10:55 we were on the road heading towards Ollainville, whereContinue reading “August 31 – Sept 4”

Well … it’s been a while since the last blog post. A lot to update since Zonhoven. We haven’t had solid WiFi for long enough to write and post in the last week so this will be a long one.

Normally we wouldn’t take so many days off, but it’s okayContinue reading “Week 1 Pt. 2 – Monday August 9 – Wednesday August 11”

As I wrote before in the previous post we changed our flight to Amsterdam due to COVID problems. (a quarantine wasContinue reading “Week 1 – Wednesday Aug 4, 2021 – Sunday Aug 8, 2021”

We haven’t really posted anything for a while but we haven’t been riding so there hasn’t been to much to post about besides some photos of bike maintenance work. Our whole trip plan has basically stayed the same this whole time up until about a week ago. We were doing some final checks on UKContinue reading “One Week Before Departure”

6/28/2021 – Today was interesting. I got a text today while I was at work from Iceland Air that our flight was changed from August 2 to August 1, so I went online to make sure everything was still in order with our flights. I ended up finding out that we now only had aContinue reading “Bike Wrenching Day 1 – Tubeless Tires”
