Hot wheels: Cologne to Koblenz under hard sun (☀️🌡️💨)

Left with 5 litres of “eau de Cologne” and drank it before arriving at destination so I had to refill on the way. Feeling of freshness when it was only 30 degrees; also the breeze was welcome. Fortunately the cycleway was full of families so it was another reason to take it easy. Lunch break and quick visit of Bonn (saw the HARIBO shop, good that it was closed 🤣). Met several cyclists doing long distance trip and discussed with one who was on his way to the Black Sea.

Bike tour on a hot day, even on the summit of the Venn and the Eifel national Park. 65 km on unpaved ways. Several drink/water shopping on the way. Great landscapes. Wasn’t sure if I would make it to Cologne.

Warm with a breeze and mobile office on the back. Busy cycleways but empty roads. 102 km in Luxembourg, 11 km in France and 53 km in Germany. When I arrived home, I thought I could just repeat it.

Moselle-Saar-Hunsrück-Moselle Tour

Leave a comment
https://www.strava.com/activities/2453082002

Route: followed the Mosel-Radweg, Saar-Radweg, Hunsrück-Radweg (which was also shared with Rheinland-Pfalz Radroute and Ruwer-Hochwald-Radweg) to Morbach then followed the Nahe-Hunsrück-Mosel Radweg to Neumagen-Dhron, went back to the Mosel-Radweg and to Trier from Schweich via Ruwer (because the Mosel-Radweg near Ehrang is not pleasant).

25 km on unpaved tracks; where tracks were all maintained except on some parts of the Nahe-Hunsrück-Mosel Radweg where it was quite bumpy.

It was hot and soggy at the beginning, but with the altitude gain and the forest it got cooler. Had (late) lunch in ALDI Hermeskeil and dinner in Trier before catching the train back.

Cycling from Strasbourg to Offenburg

Leave a comment

On cycleways, mostly dedicated. Easy to ride, the total distance is about 60 km long on a flat surface, mostly on asphalt; only one small segment is on a track and another one on gravel. The North segment to Offenburg is nicer than the South back to Strasbourg via Illkirch.
