For all the pedal pushers out there that love long distance cycling. There are no gear requirements and no 'minimum distances' here.
Have you ridden for a cheeky overnighter or a 3 year global trek? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.
Have you got panniers, bikepacking bags or just a backpack with the essentials? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.
Have you got the latest in carbon engineering or your dads old 10 speed from the 70's? Doesn't matter, you're welcome here.

Good luck :)
When are you going to start, like today?
Just leaving, I hope that I will post update in few days.
Awesome, again good luck, good weather and have fun!
I will need it lol.
I usually like reading stories where shit happens the best ;)
First stop. On second I hope that I can change one of these bikes at my home cca half way for my old bike with rack and it is 28' not 26' as the guy with backpack has.
Oh man that looks already like it's going to be a fun time! Big group!
There are 5 of us, already there was first blood. Guy with backpack fell (fortunately he carries less gear), my bike didn't worked out so he will have to deal with it.
And we have pretty good pace downhill so I think it will be about 100km today.
Stories where shit hits the fan - centering wheel on the camp spot wasn't on my bingo card but it wasn't unexpected.
The guy has also totally stretched chain so drive train is bad too... We just scratched route and will probably go to Bratislava then Vienna and home.
