I'm thinking about doing this, did you like the bike rental shop and if so could you provide a name and a link? Did you make your own route or find one online?
Thanks! I know - I'm just so used to cycling in the UK where having a helmet on is sensible but obviously the Dutch cycle/road infrastructure and culture is completely different (and safer).
You had the worst weather, such a shame, two weeks later and it is beautifull over here. You cycled through my area, het Bildt and Sint Annaparochie, where Rembrandt got married. It is so pretty here when the sun is shining. Nevertheless, great video
It's a nice video, but I'm clueless why people do these kind of things. It's cold, wet en windy. You're in constant physical pain. You have to sleep on a hard ground. In a little tent with slugs! You're diners look extremely unattractive (hardly any vegetables). Some of these places are really nice, but you're not even really visiting them. I don't understand it at all.
Well, what is your idea of vacation? He’s enjoying his tour, gets to visit new places and people, travels relatively cheaply and probably living his dream. Rain, wind and cold builds character.
It's good for the soul. I love being outdoors, it doesn't matter if it's beautiful sunshine or wet and cold. The fulfilment you get from completing challenges like this is what it's all about 😊
Sometimes you just forget just how beautiful this little country is. Getting used to the scenery because of, well just life. And seeing it through the eyes of a foreigner is always nice. I hope you really enjoyed it. And lets be honest : when you are from GB you must be used to the weather. And thank god for rain , it's making both of our counties beautifully green, clean and fresh. Just one remark : DO NOT diss our mountains. We are proud of it. ;-)
Thanks Guy this was incredibly helpful for someone like me, planning the TA South Island next year as well! Would love to see a video about the food parcels!
