Superb again!
Can you list the books that you used for your trip please? Thanks a lot
Thanks for all that Mat. I’ll have a good look when I get home. I might have other questions 😉
Hi Mat, I see the Danube guide, but cant see one for the Eurovelo15 where you started, was it a a different book for that stretch? Thanks
Hi, my question is that bicycle path is entire (non-stop) from Donaeuschingen till Budapest? Did they build it all the way long, or sometimes I have to go out from the bike way and change to the normal… car way? THANKS
i have fallen in love with you guys and your journey through a massive binge, following my interest of cycling the austrian danube. Your videos are great, what an accomplishment!! All that cycling must have beenp bloody tough! I am interested in your planning of the trip?
Thank you for the video! May i ask what your average speed was, and how many kilometers you rode on average every day? Thank you!
(I plan to go Passau – Budapest in late summer)
Applied for the Transcontinental Race next year, I think I am going to have to incorporate some of the path into the Route as I head from Roubaix in France to Graz in Austria. From the video the surface of the path looks fine for road tyres.
Did this route about four years ago as part of my Manchester to Linz ride. Nice to be reminded of some of the views again. Macdonald's, Nah, I was more into stopping at the Eis cafes 🙂
You didn't answer the question – How long is an elephant pregnant for??? I googled it. 95 weeks. You're welcome. 🙂
Love your video series on the Danube! Can't wait to go with 3 of my buddies I've known since 1975. So many great adventures with my boys through the years! This one will be the best for sure!! All the best from California
Snoring !!!! always take ear plus
I was stationed in Augsburg for nearly 4 years – good bike paths, friendly people, and lovely area – The Cathedrial in Ulm is a marvel, and will knacker your legs climbing up the narrow stairs to the towers…
I’m a snorer 😴 sorry man
