For those who like cycling and biciclitul this week I thought to share in their learning before and during our trip the bicycle magazine cool through Europe. None of us was born learned. Life is a continuous learning. Are you paying attention? Are you listening? You stop to look left, right?
Here's what I saw, heard and seen so far I linked which means the bike trip. Read these lines written from a subjective perspective and accept them as such. I did not intend to make a classification. No, nor I want to be a professional. I'm just an enthusiast like you.
Have you ever thought about how many types of bicycle trips there? Beyond Biclea short ride around the neighborhood or park. Beyond walking to the store and back with bags hanging from the handlebars? magazine cool Until 1 year ago, I do not I ever put that question. After our first discussion about a possible beer ride bikes through Europe, I began to document. Who knows what sites I came, what travel blogs on the wilderness of the internet and other forums I hopscotch. And I read. Green and dry, good and bad, subjective and objective. But we did not put nicicodată magazine cool problem: bathrooms, wait a second, well-well, go on a bike through the world, but what kind of trip we want to do?
Now, after more than 2,000 km on bike through several countries (France, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia) I can say that on July 27, when we wrapped biclele we took taxi and went to the airport, I did not almost nothing about what it really means a bike ride.
If you seriously think that you could ever Biclea and mount her and you go, one day, two, nine, a month or more from home, well, there is as far as we have seen, three broad categories of bicycle trips.
This guided trip involves travel to go to a company or to men with experience in bicycle trips. Analyze some variants, study their offer, enroll in a program, pay some money, perhaps some of them in advance, waiting with baited breath and one fine morning you take Biclea and leave. All our bags are carried by a support car, and head of the group that leave (possibly composed of people from different countries) magazine cool goes a experienced guide. He makes the route, he sets the steps, stopping places, he takes care of all the details: maps, GPS, water, food, accommodation, communication with people in different languages etcetera. They can tell you are including things that you need and you have to put them in storage. Just pedal. Bicycle breaks magazine cool something? No problem, dealing a trained mechanic. You just smile and enjoy the trip of your dreams. Cycling.
Pre-trip routes difference from the first type of bicycle travel is: you want to go, you have to head an idea of what places you want to see what cities you want to visit, but you have no idea about the route on the roads is recommended to pedal, how many miles it is recommended to go through every day by relief, temperature, weather conditions, where you have to accommodate you, where you have to eat etc.. Do you want to go to escort you, do not want a car emergency road behind you. And then, on the net - there are a lot of sites profile - and choose a default route that comes with every single detail you need to know before you go. The trail is divided into stages, days, miles, gives details of places where you can stock up on water, accommodation, hotels, hostels, campsites, points of interest, restaurants, cafes, clubs, bars, shops , riding magazine cool the train, the bus, the ferry if necessary, visiting the museums magazine cool program, program cinema, theater and everything else you could want to know about where travel and their surroundings. Receive including a guide to baggage, exactly what things you have to take with you depending on where you want to travel, climate and temperature, the time of year you choose to travel, about why you need a minimum budget and other specific advice about local customs, what is recommended to do and are situations where it is best to stay away. The rest is in your feet. You have everything you need to you in special baggage bicycle. Ready. I take?
In our journey we met many travelers who address such pre-established magazine cool routes. They guide and kick them to the new place to stay relaxed. The best example is the Canal du Midi in France. Or Santiago de Compostela.
Travel Free Style This is the type of journey that I have chosen us. Without escort, without a guide, without machine assistance without pre-established magazine cool steps without reservations
