Wasn’t sure if my city tires would cut it. Time to put on the knobbies! The last time these were on was nearly two years ago. Adventure incoming!

I’ve arrived in Amsterdam for my 3 hour layover. The flight was wonderfully smooth and I sat next to a nice older lady from Enumclaw. I took off at 1:30pm and just 9 hours later landed at 7:45am.Les mer

My first camping destination. Roughly 53 miles from Vienna, I thought I’d get a good start because I needed to move! The weather was initially perfect. 60’s, overcast and a nice cool spring air,Les mer

I have arrived in Germany 🇩🇪 The forecast for the next few days is iffy. Because of that, I relaxed a couple days in Passau. I had a feeling I’d like this city, and I was correct! Starting inLes mer

Jay, it looks a bit wet. I hope you are able to keep that 'down-bag' dry :-)
Reisende Yes so far! Luckily my tent and bike bags are completely water proof! I’d be real miserable if that bag got wet, hah! So far it’s been the perfect sleeping bag 👌

I am toasting along with you! Well deserved! I can only imagine how easy it went down, and how good it tasted.
Reisende It was delicious! A Zwickle beer they call it, which I think just means unfiltered wheat bear (their traditional beer here!)

Passau to Salzburg was going to be a two day ride or one veeery long day if I went for it. It started off decently dry, but got more and more wet as I went. Wet, muddy and cold! I opted for a hotel inLes mer

After seeing the forecast, I set aside a few days to see the sights and do the things in and around Salzburg. I found a campsite in close proximity to two attractions. The campsite itself had a sauna,Les mer
This journey is so rich in history and culture, not to be outdone by challenging weather! Thank you for taking the time share with us Jay!! [Craig Racicot]

Wow! The sense of history must have been perhaps emotional? Hitler was actually there so long ago?
Reisende He was indeed. If you google The Eagles Nest you can read a bit about it. And it was very bizarre to stand on a piece of history like that.

Off of a recommendation from one of the bartenders in town, I checked out the Augustiner. You pick your mug, either .5 liter, or 1 liter. You can guess which one I grabbed. You then give it a rinseLes mer
Reisende Jay that looks like so much fun. I'm guessing that it's a good thing you are burning all those calories each day if you know what I mean. Just curious, what do vegitarians eat there :-))))))
Reisende Hah! Yes, good thing indeed. And so far… I see salads and pastries 😅 oh, and pizza of course!
