It seems like forever ago already but I eased off mountain biking in May to focus on some longer road rides in preparation for touring from Berlin back to my hometown in Yorkshire.
For 11 days, two mates and I winged it as we headed west, meeting some amazing people along the way. We were put up by an old friend in Potsdam, some farmers in The Netherlands, we gatecrashed a motorbike festival night and even managed to blag camping on a football pitch at Münster with access to the clubhouse all night.
I’m still dreaming of how their bike lanes have better surfaces than our roads!
With two GoPros logging our journey, here are some edited highlights and there’s a longer edit of the full tour on my YouTube channel.
Has anybody got any suggestions for future tours? I’ve ridden from home to Paris via Belgium and done the Outer Hebrides already but keen for more adventures.
