2025-08-30: Day 05 Kalocsa – Baja (65km, total: 484km)

The weather forecast is ratherbad for the next two days. A lot of rain and maybe some lightnings. I woke up and the sun was shining. I started to exchange the tube of the back wheel. The two reserve tubes looked two small. What a fail if I really took the wrong tubes from home […]

2025-08-29: Day 04 Dunaharaszti – Kalocsa (125km, total: 419km)

Wow, that was a tough day. I never cycled so far yet. A new personal best with all the luggage, 35°, at least 20km gravel or farm path and with a back wheel losing continuously slowly air. I noticed in the morning that there isn’t that much air in the back wheel. But I assumed […]

2025-08-28: Day 03 Nagymaros – Budapest – Dunaharaszti (79km, total: 294km)

After some bread and smoked chili cheese, which I bought yesterday, I started a bit late at 10 at the camping. The first goal was the ferry at 11 in Vác. I was at 10:50 at the village. So plenty of time for a small detour to the triumphal arch, which was built in 1764. […]

2025-08-27: Day 02 Komárno – Nagymaros (104km, total: 215km)

To answer the question from yesterday: the tent is great, more than enough space now. With the current weather, the tent isn‘t getting wet as well. I even didn‘t have to close the outer tent because it was still warm. In the morning, I went to a Lidl and bought bread, some creamy sauce with […]

2025-08-26: Day 01 Bratislava – Komárno (111km)

At 7:15 I woke up, stayed still a bit in the bed and then ate breakfast in the hotel. The buffet was great. After check-out, I went to a fountain (Námestie slobody) and then visited the castle. At 10 o‘clock, I reached the EuroVelo 6 route, which I will follow to the Black Sea. The […]

2025-08-25: Day 00 Bern – Bratislava (by train)

Today, my Danube adventure continues, finally after 5 years when I had to stop because of Corona restrictions. The bicycle with the luggage is about 40kg, very similar to the last time. This time, I could put everything into the four bags. It means as well to say goodbye to my wife and cat for […]
