Rollin' to Croatia on a bike

1) Hell yeah!

SWITZERLAND | Saturday, 25 July 2015 | Views [285]

Hi!

My name is Jean-Raphael. I am 23 years old. I am 190cm tall and weigh 85kg. I am swiss.

It all began on a cold day of January...

January 2015: A friend and I, fond of outdoor sports, were having a banal conversation about summer holiday when one of us had this brilliant idea...

"Hey Chef! Why don't we go to Montenegro by bike this summer?!" =D

Such an enthusiastic suggestion could only result in a likewise enthusiastic answer...

"Hell yeah Chef, let's do that!"

At this point, the plan was clear:

  • Buy a bike, a camping tent and all sort of essential equipment for adventure.
  • Get trained (since I haven't ever really bicycled).
  • Find a more or less precise itinerary, a date of departure and a flight on the way back.

 

...after some talking and rethinking, we decided to target Dubrovnik (Croatia) instead of Montenegro. The amount of time we had being to short (23 days) for unexperienced adventurer like us. Moreover, we want to prioritise the travel experience more than the sportive performance.

And to be honnest, at the time I am writing this, I still wonder whether or not we are underestimating the task...

Well, we are currently waiting for the departure date: 3th August 2015. And of course in the training process.

 

See you soon!
