Hotel receptionist was intrigued by my pannier bags and almost couldn’t believe it when i told him they were waterproof, already 10 years old and I had even had an accident with them. I’ll take my sponsorship money now, big german brand specialised in such products. :-P #biketouring #bikepacking #nerdiontour

Day 2: Imola - Ravenna
↔️ 53.9 km ↗️ 15m
Today I reached the Adriatic coast. Luckily it only started raining after I arrived in Ravenna. It made for a wet exploration of the city, but some nice moody pictures and even a rainbow when it started clearing up!

Here's a question to those with detailed knowledge about traffic rules in Italy: As a bicyclist am I allowed to cycle here?
In Switzerland, the red circle is a "general driving prohibition". It means you cannot drive, on any vehicle. The only thing allowed here is walking (ignoring the qualifiers below the sign).
My theory is that generally, this is different in Italy, as in, this sign does not apply to cyclists. Or at least it isn't enforced at all?

I also came across two obstacles today:
The first one is a river crossing with a very sandy overgrown bank. Practically impossible to traverse. Apparently this is part of a mountain bike route and a bicycle route on OSM. I can't imagine this being fun to traverse even by mountain bike. So I edited OSM to make this bit impassable.The second one is a blocked road. I squeezed past the gate and only one of the three workers looked at me irritatedly...

Day 1: Bologna - Imola
↔️ 55.3 km ↗️ 24m
Easy first leg of the trip. Separated bicycle lanes for the first 10km or so leaving Bologna, cool! Too narrow at times and not in the best shape maintenance-wise, but seems to be used by a lot of cyclists of all kinds!
Imola seems to be quite a sleepy unspectacular town, though that could also have to do with the thunderstorms of today. Makes me wonder what it would be like on a Formula 1 race weekend. -

Day 0
More Bologna: The porticoes (arched walkways) remind me of Bern (they are also a UNESCO world heritage). Apparently there is a tram under construction, unfortunately not running yet. Public transport is definitely an area where this city can improve a lot. Also, the city centre is lacking green spaces. There's hardly a tree to be found. Overall, highly recommend it though. But visit when it's cooler...

So this year Christmas celebration was pleasantly interrupted by #bikepacker from Japan.
I was half watching new fairy tale from our national TV (which wasn't that good they didn't managed to make good one in some time) and got warmshowers notification.
I didn't told him much but when he just got in the middle of our family gathering he was bit surprised. I think it is the highlight of this year's Christmas for me and my family too.

I would say: after the rain comes the bitter cold night - and then comes the sun again... ❄️🌫️🌥️

Followed along the #AstridLindgrenLeden from #jönköping to a nice cozy campside at a lake.
Weather was warm and I enjoyed the up and down of the smooth hills. 🌞
After #Eksjö I cycled through more gravelish parts and my inner child was so happy to see all this cute red cottages and farms. 🤩
Just waited for the classic jelling of: "Eeeeeemiiiilllll!"* 😄
The area was so calm and beautiful...*It's "Miiiichhheeeeel!" for the german followers. 😉

I’m a big fan of the r/bikepacking community on Reddit but not a fan of Reddit itself. Is there a nice alternative, preferably on #lemmy or #kbin?
