You’re very welcome! As for traveling by bike I just finished a ride from the top of Sweden to the bottom and except for a used up tire, I didn’t have a single mechanical problem. So as long as you make sure to start your trip with a well serviced bike you rarely risk anything, I’d say.
Of course that depends on where you are going though - I wouldn’t go out on a three month trip in the deepest of Alaska without a good set of redundant gear, but traveling in Europe is no problem at all.
That sounds like an incredible trip!
I wrote about it here https://lemmy.world/post/2241358 :)
nice trip report! i think it would really benefit by the inclusion of a map of your route, do you have one?
That is terrific, thanks! It loads a bit slow as it’s 2MB. Try saving it as a .webp, it’ll be much faster! Looking at it now…
Done! :)
much faster! was this 100% your planned route? i recall you mention adapting your timing and possibly your route near stockholm?
Ah no this is the outcome, ie. what I actually rode. The planned route was adapted along the way, yes
Simon, would you mind if I added you as a moderator of !ultralight@lemmy.world?
Sure, go ahead :)
I’ll add it as soon as my data export from Garmin is done processing. I had three alternatives for the route when I left Malmo, but ended up making the next day’s route day-to-day basically. It was easier that way, given changes in weather, amount of food etc.
