Km 0 to km 90The morning of our last day together till home, we spend with packing and waiting at the cassa of LIDL until they solved their problem of having a lack of coins in the cassa. Nici surprises me again with he knowledge of how the problems is dealt with, telling every step ahead. She has...
From this morning I am on my way home. All other plans have failed, so I am bound to go more or less on the direct way. Nici accompanies me until Venezia, then I am completely on my own. I will cycle the whole way now, to finish my cycling tour and to slowly get accustomed to home.Day one I cycle...
It is time to go home! Today we want to go camping at the seaside again, having a little break of the last 5 days of adventure. The first camping we enter is huge. To the description 4400 campers may stay here. We feel totally lost! We try another camping, one for 600 people. This one is already...
Mariane and Nico are having bike holidays too. I know Mariane from long time ago and she was the one giving me advice for Iran. They are cycling from Trieste to Durrës. All four of us think it would be a nice idea to meet somewhere. This somewhere is a small town called Buje in Istria.

I feel my legs twitching again, so I want to start the road cycling. I do the whole length of Hvar Island until I reach the ferryport. It is all up and down on a really scenic road. The closer I get to it, the cliff of Croatia mainland gets more and more impressive. Hvar itself has a few sights...
Due to a stupid filter by webnode, some of the words I use may sound a bit complicated or stretching the point... but I intend to not be blocked a second time. (Lets hope they accept the word "nudist")
We always wanted to try nudist beach, and Croatia is the place for it. From Split there is a...
We reach Split in the evening, a few km before we spot the castle of Kliš. I want to go and see it. Unfortunately this wont happen. We choose Split because it is supposed to have the least bad weather along the whole coast of croatia. The forecast says only half days of rain for the next two...
On the foot of Vranduk Castle the lovers meet again. When Nici writes, she is only one hour from Zenica, I am about two hours from there. I wonder what place we could meet, where we actually find each other. To ride on the motorway like main road, I dislike the Bosnian way of driving too much....
I am on the road again. Finally! Already on the first few kilometers I notice how much I was craving for this. East of Sarajevo I enter a narrow and steep valley. The road is uphill and with the first 25 km the terrain raises almost 1000m. The Area looks like the Jura mountains in Switzerland. Only...
Day 0
After they kick us off the bus at South Station, we have to cycle 12km to reach our apartment in the city center. Besides being pissed about the bus company, we wonder if there is any system in dropping passengers out in nowhere. Like: "make the tourists take a taxi, they are easy money." No...
