Today we drove our bikes to the car wash. Unfortunately, it was raining and couldn't be turned off. It had been forecasted that this day would be wet for a while. Nevertheless,...

The main goal of our tour today was Ottobeuren. However, a significant deterioration in weather was forecasted, so we couldn't estimate how well we would progress. We were able...

Even today, first a small addition to last night. We were already on our way to the truck stop to satisfy our hunger when we saw a sign pointing to a guesthouse called Gasthof...

First a small update about yesterday. It was extremely difficult to find something to eat in the evening as almost all restaurants were closed on Mondays. Thank God not all of...

Today we had another U100 stage. It went really well because we got the only significant mountain test out of the way at the beginning, when it was still quite cool. Later on,...

Today we started on Römö, heading north for another 10 km - and the wind didn't let up at all. But then, we turned west towards the mainland - and the northwesterly breeze was...

Even though the train was booked a long time ago, it's hard to believe. We have finally set off on our bike tour across - or rather, along, from north to south - Germany....
