Today’s ride on Komoot The campground was really quiet last night, so I slept well and got going on time. As I was packing the bike, the lovely German couple that I had spoken to a number of times yesterday afternoon brought over a mug of coffee. That was so nice of them. With our …
Today’s ride on Komoot I didn’t feel like riding today. I don’t know why, but I didn’t want to stay here in Gryzybowo. It’s just a pop-up summer tourist area as far as I can see. There are lots of tourist shops selling the kinds of things people buy on holiday, and the food is …
Today’s ride on Komoot The hotel was quite nice, and it had a restaurant. Lucky, because there weren’t many options in Nowogard. The breakfast wasn’t anything special, just like dinner last night, and just like the town. It was fine though, just like the town. The town is set around a beautiful lake, and the …
Today’s ride on Komoot Another late start. There’s no need to mention it in future. That’s just what I do, but today was an hour later than ever. I’d bought a small top tube bag, a Topeak Fastfuel Drybag. I was sick of faffing around with ziplock bags to keep my phone dry whenever it …
I ordered the breakfast last night, not knowing what to expect, but knowing it was all I was going to get until lunchtime. If you saw the size of the breakfast, you’d wonder why I needed lunch (I didn’t really). There was muesli, yoghurt, juice 4 types of cheeses, egg, salad, fruit, and fresh bread …
The strange little Pension that I stayed in had interesting room keys. They were transponders that when pressed rendered the lock usable. Last night, I struggled a bit with the main door but eventually it worked. With nobody around I started to think how the hell I was going to get in. I had a …
The hotel in Finsterwalde was great and I was lucky to chance upon the town when I was scanning the map for accommodation places. Great breakfast too. Last night’s pizza from the restaurant around the corner was also very nice. It looked like there were only a couple of places open too. That’s really surprising …
Today’s ride on Komoot Overnight, I decided to head towards the Polish border rather than Berlin. There’s another river to follow along the border, plenty of cycle paths, and I can head into Poland at anytime. I should have checked the wind prediction. It was howling all day, right on the nose for the last …
Today’s ride on Komoot A home cooked omelette was the starting point of my day. I took my time and packed slowly to make sure everything fitted. I’ve got rid of the fork bags – well, I’ll use them for food and overflow stuff if necessary from now on, but I’m interested to see how …
Today’s ride on Komoot The campground supplied breakfast for a small fee, so that’s what I did. All my favourite breakfast food was there so I was ready for the day immediately. This place has something. It’s the constitution, … it’s just the vibe. I left the campground and took the path into town then …
