look at that it's sunny and i'm about to leave patricia's place
i stayed here two nights the first night she was here and then she went to her family or
her boyfriend but yesterday i was here alone and it was good i did some video editing and
I rested a bit and now i'm hitting the road it will be nice to to cycle for the first time in the sun
in a long long time so the next week should be good all week except one day and so it'd be fun
to have a week of no rain hopefully but i will also probably not cycle a lot because i will
be getting to amsterdam so i will spend a few days and then i have some friends to visit in
around amsterdam and i will be spending a few days with them
and hopefully i will be meeting luuk the guy that i met in albania i don't know if you remember if
not i will put the link in the description and you can go back and watch these videos of when we met
that is the city center of zwolle
it stays dry another few days then i think i can start to do some dirt
you can see the still water in the fields everywhere
this one is doable hard packed dirt
yeah yeah it seems a bit dryer let's try to do this single track it's only a few kilometers
four or five kilometers i think
still see this is heavy
quite heavy
first day of sun in the netherlands no rain not even five minutes no hail stones nothing
sun all day
hopefully it's open
it is indeed it is indeed
we are in Stroe
Stroe with daniel and sharon and sarah and they also traveled a long time because daniel and
sharon they went from the netherlands to thailand yeah correct so it was really nice stay here thank
you so much it was lovely you're welcome yeah yeah thanks for staying with us
and sara loves nutella
nice and sunny
and warm, relatively warm
last night was -2 so freezing but the sun is quite warm this morning so
it's a pleasant temperature
just outside the village i'm hitting the forest but
it's [ __ ] paved why would you pave the forest why?
see the the day is warm but if you notice there is ice on the water
if i find a stone no i can't find a stone
finally some dirt
this is a really fun single track circuit that there is in in this forest it's really fun i did a
half of it now i'm back on the original route but it's it was it was really fun and there are some
kids there with their fathers with the mountain bike and they are really really having fun
break
now we can enjoy this single track very nice very fun single tracks
my bags are now very tight so they will make some noise and the actual thing shaking
you hear is the
the vitamin c i bought in uh in lithuania it's a it's a box with like almost 300 little
little balls of vitamin c it was so cheap it was probably just sugar
nice and fun
the fun is over i think i need to turn right here
that's okay it was fun anyway
good morning from this trashy lane yeah today i'm getting to amsterdam it's still not raining
but it's predicted pouring rain in about two hours yeah what can i do? yesterday very sunny
and today very rainy it's just northern europe let's get to amsterdam
look at this piaggio ciao
from the 80s that's basically, a precursor of the e-bike was with a combustion engine but
it had the pedals so you could pedal and yeah for me that's the closest thing to an e-bike
not a bicycle but this kind of thing it's the closest thing to an e-bike because
don't forget an e-bike is a motorbike it's just that the motor is electric
at least we got to do
some dirt before before it starts raining
this is the bike lane into amsterdam through the little forest
i guess the fun is over
turned left into the bike lane
yeah that's the first suburb of amsterdam i think
i thought there was a bridge but there is actually a ferry and take this germany the ferry is for free
