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 ;)

Just discovered your channel. Really enjoyed your cycling trip and now I’m about to view more of your adventures. Thank you.

Such a great video. Thanks for the content

@EnlightenMewithJoePena Месяц назад

I was searching for Pannier reviews, and saw yours about Thule. Now, I just started watching your videos from the beginning, and am looking forward to watching as your journey unfolds. (Also, I agree about the knee pain, especially after riding long after I should have stopped.)

Aw thank you! ☺️

enjoyed watching, trip looks great

@phillipbateman2284 Год назад

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.

@biking_beyond Год назад

Haha the “if you want to stop falling off the bike, don’t drink so much wine” really got me laughing 😝😃😃 I didn’t fell off the bike after that anymore luckily. I had to adjust to the weight of the bike I think ☺️

Good vlog, would love to explore the Eurovelo someday !

It’s beautiful, do it!!!

A++++. How did I miss your channel? Just starting to watch your videos. They show bicycle touring in all it's glory and hardships. Pitching your tent on an ants nest made me laugh. Sorry. Every seasoned cycle tourist has done this at some point. It's not funny at the time though as they get everywhere and more often than not they are the biting kind. i thought I liked cycling in France but then last year I discovered Gran Canaria which is cycling paradise if you like mountains and this autumn Andalucia in Spain is fabulous. May 2024 I ride from Santander to Malaga taking one month. I can't wait as I love riding in Spain. I have ridden in lots of other countries but Spain is the best.

@BrentKelly5 Год назад

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. :)

@biking_beyond Год назад

Wow super nice, how long do you plan your trip to be?

@BrentKelly5 Год назад

@@biking_beyond not sure but we’ve got lots of time!

@relaxingmeditation5155 Год назад

awesome video I want do this trail next year with my surf board from Brittany

@splashpit 5 месяцев назад

Cycled Brittany six years ago was the best part of the France , as an Australian I wish it was easier to live there longer than the visa allows .

@crc0485 Год назад

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? :)

@hxxxkxxx1129 Год назад

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

Hi, what bikes are you using?

@alpo2smith Год назад

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.

@biking_beyond Год назад

Hi Brent, that sounds amazing! If you like; you can have a look at the exact route that we took on our website (also available in english): bikingbeyond.de . There is a tab called “map”, where you can see our route to Straßburg in detail. We enjoyed the route and found the road infrastructure for cyclists in a very cold condition. Something that might be interesting for you could be the “Donauradweg”, a well Known and well built bike route. In general and as of our experiences until now we have to say the bike lanes/ pathes in Germany and France were definitely the best we saw so far, so even if you decide to ride “off route” you still should be fine :) contact us if you have any further questions!

@alpo2smith Год назад

@@biking_beyond Thank you for your reply. Will definitely look at your site now. EuroVelo 15 and 6 are most likely the route I will take however part of me would like to ride on the ElbeRadWeg. I probably won't decide for another year. Be safe and enjoy yourselves.

"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

@biking_beyond Год назад

😁

@roothartarchitect3297 Год назад

Great videos. In Spain it was very cold, which period were you there?

@biking_beyond Год назад

Thanks! It was End of June/ beginning of July I think, the exact dates are given in the videos ☺️

@wesleyoduinn6160 2 месяца назад

What do you do with your stuff if you want to set up camp and go shopping? Or go for a swim?

@biking_beyond 2 месяца назад

That’s the misery! You have to take your stuff with you at all times! That’s why sometimes we decided to get an accommodation. While staying in Portugal, we hid our stuff under some bushes during the day😅 it was a perfect hiding spot but we were a bit scared the our stuff could burn down in the wildfires while we spend the day at the beach 😄

@peterbedford2610 Год назад

Ive heard that Euro Velo 1 in France is very car-free. Did you find this to be true?

@biking_beyond Год назад

100% true since you NEVER share the road with cars. You always have separate paths just for bikes☺️

@bwilsonduncan 3 месяца назад

Where the hell are you?? This could be a good video if you'd shown' what your trip was.

@johnomlo7455 Год назад

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.

@biking_beyond Год назад

We did, but since we were working a LOT before quitting our job it was not possible to do longer trips than 1-2 days 😞

@arjanthomassen2882 7 месяцев назад

50 km and 2 hours finding a campspot …. If that is already a Challenge…. Not prepared at all. Sorry to say. But I hope you liked your trip. That is the most important👍

@fm7319 5 месяцев назад

Proper preparation brings about a mindset shift from seeking fun to "embracing the suck". I teach my kids to avoid saying how difficult things are...to be thankful for everything. Stoic philosophy.
