The first adventure of this year…

I am going on a new adventure! And it starts tomorrow. This time I want to ride around Schleswig-Holstein (SH) in 5 days. That means round about 100km to 130km each day, a bit more than on my trip to the polish border, but I am again traveling a bit lighter. Mainly due to the time of the year I decided to stay in youth hostels and BnBs, since we still have -2 degrees celsius at night. Therfore I don’t need any camping gear etc. Another nice chage is my new bike, which I will properly introduce soon. It’s a carbon race bike, which on its own only wheighs 7.2kg, obviously not made for traveling, but I can fit my frame bag, so everything I can fit in there can come along. Everything else has to stay at home xD So just to give you a rough idea, the bike now wheighs with all bags attached, excluding water and food, 11.7kg. That is within a 100g the wheight of my old steel race bike on its own ;-)

For the route details and more background infos, just come back tomorrow evening. I’ll post from the first stop, which is in Büsum. Have a great time and I’ll be back with more tomorrow.
