Our fist days in France were tough! We were total Newbies and were overwhelmed by cycling all day. Riding along the beautiful Atlantic coastline was a reward every day, but we struggled with knee pain on a daily. Hence we decided to take it slow and take a day off. With the beautiful white sand beaches, spending a few hours off the saddle was easy 😉

    1. Hi gang. Planning a cycling trip in 2024. Part of my route will take me from Strasbourg to Villingen-Schweningen. I am planning to ride through Ichenheim and Friesenheim as I lived there when I was younger. Might you have a good idea as to the best bike route after Lahr going eastwards. Love your journey thus far.

    2. Hahaha, so funny. Here we have a typical Black Forest relationship constellation: she takes care of external communication, he babbles in the background.

    3. To Alex and pretty girl, it's really good to see you're both happy and smiling now, a bottle of wine and a bag of chips can do that. I'm sure I felt the water when you took us for a paddle. I do like it when you ride next to each other. If you want to stop falling off the bike, dont drink so much wine. Thanks for the vlog, take care.

    4. Nice to see, but I must conclude you did not prepare very well for this trip. Always do some trainingrides with a fully packed bike, so you know how it feels, if your position is good, if there are diffences between left and right. etc.

    5. I'm so glad I found your channel and I like your snack selections! We are planning on doing a cycling trip on our Europe trip in a few months. Leaving from Spain. 🙂

    6. I have 11 days off in July im a 23 year old Triathelete and very excited for an adventure but no idea where to go! 😀 I have a ROAD bike though

    7. "then we realized we were camped on top of an ant's nest.. we were covered in ants, spiders, and [more] insects" … I instantly started itching at the mere thought! goodness gracious, I'll go bicycle touring, but for that reason right there alone, you will not ever catch me camping! ahhhhh

    8. Great video – my girlfriend and I are doing a similar tour this summer! Did you make a packing and baggage/storage list? If so, could you share this? 🙂
