  1. 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...

  2. One of the best photo / cycling books I’d not heard of until a friend lent me his copy.

  4. Day -1

    Bologna: Impressive historic centre with big old medieval towers, the usual big churches and the oldest university in the world (the "original" university).

  5. Alright, I think I have all my bike touring stuff assembled! A few items not shown because they are at my parents.

  6. Dat 4: Continued along the coast, on a small road up to Bandon and the back to Hwy 101. Got some nice views at state parks along the shore. Got a motel in Port Orford because there was big rain predicted.

  7. I did a final review of our tentative route through the French Alps. One week from now, we'll depart Geneva! bkrtr.de/5KerO I think the route may be a bit overambitious, but there are plenty of options for cutting out some of the climbing and distance.

    Question for the @bikerouter pros: Is there a function to split up an existing route into shorter segments? I didn't see anything in the documentation.

  8. Less than a week before I head out for a bike tour in the French Alps. Which provided some extra motivation to finish editing another video from our 2024 trip. Day 8 was the shortest day in terms of distance but nonetheless had highlights like the Passo di Pura and the Sauris reservoir and valley. Just amazing stuff. youtube.com/watch?v=rb-7hQOUL70

  9. First night out on my trip to Reno.. Found a sweet campsite in the Siuslaw National Forest, off a closed-to-motor-vehicles road.

  10. Slowly getting ready for #nerdiontour 2026 edition: My lock holder broke last year and my bottle holder broke recently. So I figured, why not get two bottle holders to replace the one? It required moving the bike pump further to the back, which puts it quite close to the wheel. But clearance is clearance as they say! #biketouring #bikepacking

  11. Anyone interested to come along for a ride? I do plan to go on a #bikepacking trip with @lyrilith from roughly the 6th to 24th of September, starting in the #saarland region then south through France endig either on the Mediterranean Sea or the Atlantic. We dont have a fully planned route yet but we've done this a few times already and know our way around. Maybe some #biketooter has similar plans and is interested to come along for the whole or part of the way. #cycling #biketouring #adventoot

  12. If I've done 100km in a day, or multiple days of biking without fancy padded shorts, do I *really* need $200 biking shorts for a four day ride? Is it really that much worse?

  13. Gravel road perfection. The groads of Rensselaer County NY are phenomenal. Mostly low traffic class 1 gravel through rural areas dotted with farms. The terrain isn't too steep but you will get some short 20% climbs. It's punchy to say the least.

  14. "We opted to do a much less invovled weekend, basically just a bike camping trip vs a bikepacking trip. Sleeping outside, having a campfire, and just being away from the world is good enough sometimes."

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

  17. "We know bikes are an important tool for mobility. Combining that access with rail-to-recreation destinations could be a way to help remedy outdoor exclusion." -Aubrey Byron in @StreetsblogUSA #BikeTouring #BikeTravel #BikeTourism #tourism #travel #Amtrak #BikesAndTrains #MoveEquity #BikeTooter #cycling
