And also the third one is home now !

Hey guys,

I made it home last night at 4 am in the morning. After a long long day of travelling with the trains from Ettlenschieß (close to Ulm) to Michendorf (close to my home) I had the possibility to come cycling into my hometown by night when the village is still sleeping.

After there were some problems (due to heavy storm) with the rails close to my destination the Deutsche Bahn paid a taxi for me that drove me and my bike home for the last 117 km.

(over 60 min delay -> it ended up to 3 hours delay)

But now i´m home and I  am really really thankful for the time I had with the tricycle and pentcycle :)

Looking forward to a new project ! Where shall we cycle to? Amsterdam? London? Barcelona? I guess for now we all better stay close to our homes and relax.

I would also like to thank everyone who followed our blog ! Thanks for your mental support ! We really appreciated it !

Auge

home, sweet home :)

Tami’s home, too :D
Is it really true!? Because I feel so happy and sad at the same time!

Just wanna say, I really had an amazing time, and if I had the chance I would go right away and do it again! Best tricycle ever – indeed!

Big thanks to my guys Jan & Auge – we did it!!

Thanks also to Jonathan, Michi and Lauri :) was nice to be with you for the last km!
Thanks to everyone who helped us in any way!!
And thanks God for all the protection, power and success.

Tami

Jan is home!

After 2200 km I reached home! Strange but also cool :)

Thanks for all your support and thanks to everybody who helped us on our trip with a shower or beer or sth else ;)

Thanks to Tami and Auge – we were the best tricycle ever ;) and of course also to Michi, Lauri and Jonathan. It was amazing that you joined us.

Cheers,

Jan

 

 

There are no cangoroos in Austria

Hey guys,

 

in the last two days we travelled through Austria with burning tires having the Danube always next to us and the sun in our faces and now we reached the city of Linz.

 

Memo to ourselves: “Austrian people are definetely politer when they are not cycling on their bikes !” On both of the last days we asked some people that have a yard next to their house, if we could put up our tents and they immediately responded with: “Ok, fine, over here it´s good !”

 

Tonight we are staying in a youth hostel, because the monastery we ought to have a place to sleep at, didn´t know of our arrival.

 

Our plan for tomorrow is to reach Germany and hopefully not the bad german weather.

A Gap In Space-Time-Continuum

Guys,

we experienced something pretty amazing the last four days: By pure luck we might have passed a gap in space-time-continuum. By this we were able to travel a way that was supposed to be a 12-days-trip from Budapest to Vienna in only four days.

Unfortunately this also caused a lack of material to talk about.

Tami did something for the environment and got in closer contact with a tree. She poked this beautiful living being gently with her bike. But the tree didnt respond.

In Bratislava Jan showed his gratitude to the city and touched the ground short after arrival.

In the same city we got to know the feeling of being a comrade in the communism … The RedStar-Hostel keeps the communism alive.

Yesterday we arrived in Vienna and today Lauri (a friend of Augustin) joined the team and we became the Bitricycle.

Thats all there is to say for now. No time for a catchphrase. Bye.

Nachtrag: From Belgrade to Budapest

We started in Belgrade really demotivated – it was the time when we weren’t willing to go on anymore. But on this part of the tour we experienced again how nice people can be and that nothing, not even demotivation can stop the tricycle from coming home!


Before Novi Sad. A Serbian guy offered us a place under his roof. Was great.


There is a webpage called warmshowers.com on which you can find hostfamilies or hostplaces.

In Hungary we stayed with the family of Benz – it was sooo great. Here’s a picture of the breakfast we had together. We loved this place :)

 

 

Sometimes you just have to be lucky. We just started cycling on that day when we made a stop in a village (still Serbia) to check the way. Suddenly a woman came and asked us if she is allowed to invite us for lunch. We are not stupid so we gave her a yes and we followed her into a restaurant.

We almost never felt so underdressed like at that moment. It was a openingcelebration for a new tourist restaurant and we were invited as the first tourists and got all for free.

So we – dressed with our sexy bikepants and unbrushed teeth sweaty and in need of a shower – joined the people who were dressed like on a wedding – but it was great. The food was delicious and we were happy. :)

 

On our way to Budapest.
