In this video, you will join me along an exciting eurovelo 8 bikepacking trip as…
I decided to switch hotels to be closer to the train station, just in case I opted to continue my journey to Cuneo by train. The new hotel had a super cool design and digital tech built in – kind of like staying in an Ikea showroom!
With daylight on my side, I grabbed my Brompton and hit the streets to explore Turin.
Back at the hotel, I searched for a gym, but stumbled upon something even better – a hidden room packed with board games!
After some exploring, it was time to get down to business – a good chest workout! I then wrapped up the video by showing you how the hotel’s modern Technogym workout machines worked – pretty dystopian, fully digital equipment!
Let me know in the comments if you’ve ever biked in Turin, or if you have any questions about the city!

Okay guys it’s a hot day in tin I unfortunately have to stay in tin for one more night then we will continue on our AR bike trip now let’s move uh with the bike to another booking so I thought that the bigger Hotel chain the bigger chance that you get unnoticed while
Sitting without um booking but it last only for two hours until they ask you for your room number so at least can try your luck tell them a random number man I didn’t realize they have a Subway here but why should we you Subway with uh we bromton
Right that’s the convenience of having a bike in a city complete Freedom no need to to buy public transportation tickets otherwise I love those wide streets there’s a bike lane yeah classic Italian situation on the road the campus the great news is that has 24 hours reception and it’s not that far from
Train station because I still don’t know if I will continue to Kuno by bike or by train this hotel looks very mod check this out there’s a indicator of alarm present status put your key here after check in I was pleasantly surprised with room resembling an Ikea catalog huh it works
With colorful Furnishing and digital amenities you could even watch Mr Beast YouTube videos on TV guys welcome to this nice campus it’s very colorful room bed Loops comfy really big television this is very thoughtful there’s a mini fridge empty looks like a room from Ika yes two power sockets no balcony
Unfortunately wow a digital air conditioner and there’s no do not disturb uh button wow the bathroom pretty simple but it has all I need very clean very modern I feel like uh living in an Ikea store thumbs up then I decide to explore Terin on my bmon during the daylight
Hours it was great way to kill time before my gym reservation at 8:00 p.m. okay guys I left my stuff at hotel and now we are going to go to supermarket which is not care for Express but Kut I hope the price price will be much
Cheaper and then after that I think I’m going to city center just to check out the Terin during the daylight and cheap guys uh L some fruits but since I don’t cycle today I’m looking more for uh some quick snack for the evening yes I bought some
Cookies it’s not cheap either Kut there are more ofas but uh nothing that I would like so on the left there is some uh kind of Market that is uh closing right now on my way I stumbled Upon A Street Market that reminded me my childhood when I was
Helping my parents selling clothes on the streets 24/7 I see some clothes and seafood linen some bags reminds me my old days when I was a kid and I was helping my parents selling the clothes wow cars are really dangerous here they don’t wait for you you have to move out their way so here are the stops that Flex Bus uses
I just read a article in the morning that uh one of the Fleck buses that went from Bratislava to berau it arrived to the bus station without one wheel in the rear wheel there are like four wheels and it missed one of the wheels and uh they were CAU by police and uh
The driver uh lose its uh driver license so that was a funny story this might be the tallest building here in Torino on the left there’s a weird shaped building some Palazo or something this seems like a nice park and there are no mosquitoes apparently which is weird right oh what’s
That I noticed there are a lot of homeless people at least hiding in the these gles streets everything is close on Saturday I don’t know if it’s intentional or not this seems like a main street that I missed yesterday it’s quite busy lot of open shops and lot of tourist to
Meanwhile I came across a Warhammer store filled with expensive toys so I’m quite surprised they have a vammer shop with those toys it’s quite expensive hob I often Envy other kids who had money to buy these figures but seeing them now I realized it was just a fat
There’s a big porcelan statue of a elephant and a kid reading from a book I bet it has some uh religious meaning but maybe from Hinduism or Buddhism okay so I think I will Camp here and eat few snacks and uh wait for 8:00 p.m. then I will go back to the Gy Wow this is new this is some kind of a engion gate I have to make a Photo wow this is another level of mess so much thrash just where does it come from all the trash they to bring a truck with a big ass tentacle grabs all the trash from the streets make it Hotel I encountered new challenge locating gym the hotel at propos University campus was a complete
Mess I’m try to get to the gym first there’s no one on at the reception and we have to go to fitness it’s locked I’m confused there was the sign the gym should be this way this oh yeah techno gym while exploring I found new fun looking rooms from one
With ping pong table to Common room with collection of board against and it’s locked interview room and the relax room wow check this out this is the relax room in the basement what’s here that’s the gym but no one’s inside so there’s a fully for kitchen American uh fridge not
Functioning it’s completely new not even uh unboxed yet table football yes got the go I was never good at it apparently this is like a intimate box for two to sit there’s no EO here is the Piano I wish to learn piano someday but not today wow Black Mirror Anthology series I love that uh TV series you have monopole riko twister Scotland Yard pel and they made the Black Mirror card game interesting but unfortunately all in Italian all right there t lot of
Chairs I don’t know what interview room is for interview room one two tuto room study room they have even a table tennis room check this out very nice patio with the seats place to sit fat boy I love this campus definitely worth the money definitely better than all
Other hotels that were at this price range eventually I managed to locate the gym after weeks on the road I was happy to enjoy a purer chest and back workout guys we are in wow look at this place so there’s a running machine the bench this one is
For shoulders I think I will do some bench presses chest and uh back let’s go there a digital workout machine CAU my eye it lack adjustable weights and you needed an app with subscription to even start working out guys let me show you one thing I was surprised why I need to
Register for techno gym application now it makes sense look at those machines they don’t have adjustable weight there’s no way how you can adjust your weight everything is digital you need an application check this out to even start working out let’s say you registered for the application yeah and you have to
Make an account and uh scan the QR code so let’s say I want to get stronger it remembers my last workout on uh other Mach machine it will guide you how to do the proper posture I confirmed that I finished my exercise and it will calculate ideal workload holy
Crap my maximum workload is 35 kg no need to calculate your one rep max from the dumbbells you don’t need calculator it just calculated for you so now let’s continue it chose the workload 10 kg a repetition three sets yeah let’s go it’s crazy that uh the machine will
Adjust the workout for you I definitely don’t enjoy this type of workout I like to experiment I like to set my own weight so that’s what I want to show you with that my last day in Trine came to close and I was looking forward to leave the city
Next day but more about that in the next Episode
