I cycled to Budapest!

@girlonthenet With that bike it's even more impressive.
@mihamarkic hahaha yes. I am only now really realising how unbelievably basic my bike is. I’ve had quite a few comments from people on route that ‘you’re going all that way... on THAT?!’ 😂But it made it - creaking, clicking, chain and gears worn down to almost nothing - but it made it.
@girlonthenet You're awesome doing that ride. As per my comment about the bike: it has unnecessary weight and parts (chain ring protection, fenders, stuff like that). But otherwise the bike is fine.
@mihamarkic ah I see. You weren’t being playful you wanted to offer extremely unsolicited critique. Fwiw that’s very patronising, you don’t get to determine what’s ‘necessary’ for me, a complete stranger.
@girlonthenet hey, didn't want to offend you or anything. Just saying that it's easier to ride a lighter bicycle. If you need those parts, fine.
