21 April — France – Germany, 347 miles
Second day – after almost zero sleep. Despite (/because of?) how exhausted I was yesterday – simply couldn’t sleep. [Edited to remove (a bit of) the self-pity]… but, plenty of self-doubt clouding the mind over the night, but mostly nonsense… and I’ve since figured out a few other guys have had the same.
One day at a time from here on in… and hopefully some decent nights’ sleeps.
Today’s riding – very long
~220 miles on boring French motorways
~40 miles of very, very nice twisty roads through the Black Forest
And then ~87 miles of reasonable German roads to get to the hotel
Still not really any photos or the such… I did take some video of riding through the Black Forest… but will need to have a look at how that turned out.
I can’t update my map with your vague country reference… Stuttgart, Ulm, Munich?
The company organising it doesn’t like too many details made public… “proprietary knowledge/property” – plus, preventing people from knowing where we’re likely to be tomorrow, etc.
I decided to play it safe, even on the website. I’ll reconsider, but also perhaps just list actual towns in private messages or some-such.
Germany – stayed in Ulm.
Slovenia – staying in Bled.
Hope you have a great trip
