Was not strong enough to make it the whole way oh well https://strava.app.link/AGlSegd1DVb #tourdewhy2025
on my way! #tourdewhy2025

I completely forgot to mention that I made it to WHY. Final distance is 357km in let's call it 3,25 days. It was lots of fun, unsure if I can manage the way back as soon as next week though  

Also my tires have just enough profile to not be instantly slippery on a wet road, the modder and sand on the WHY terrain are a challenge…

Test fit and test ride OK, heading out in the morning to catch my train to Waterloo, ride to KKSP, catch another train to Amsterdam and then I got 42k of party-pace and exploring a little bit of a country i’ve never been to #tourdewhy2025

The road behind. The road ahead. Breathtaking.

Unfortunately I have to admit that I won't make the last 80km or so. I am tired AF, empty beyond anything I have been before and the wind has been blowing in our faces for the past hour. Now some poffertjes, and the the train to Alkmaar and from there to the #why2025camp #tourdewhy2025 #biketocamp

5km until bed, not a cm too soon. Tomorrow will be the last leg of the trip to WHY, but you may ask β€ž@thegcat you still have a sea to cross how will you get there?β€œ. Well, the Dutch have made driving and cycling over water possible by installing the Houtribdijk between Flevoland and Noord-Holland. It’s the somewhat think dark line on the horizon, if Mastodon doesn’t compress the image too much you might see a lorry and a dozen cars behind it (going right to left) pretty much in the middle.

Let’s just hope I don’t get headwinds, 26km with nothing around might get tiresome quickly

Sparing no effort in service of what can at best be described as a shitpost and besting strong headwinds (so strong… who could have predicted that a fietspad along the coast might be windy, right?), I bring you the highest elevation of Flevoland: the hilltop on which the lighthouse of Urk is built, towering at an impressive 8m above sea level. (Look it up, the Tim traveller also made a video)
