Ventusky hinted at 33c today so we were only ever going to do a short cycle.
But it was overcast this morning which confused us so after reading a thread on fridge fans I thought I would check ours and one needed some repair which amounted to moving the wires but I got my electrician badge for...
We have just had a brief walk round Ingolstadt and I must say I am impressed.
Having cycled straight out this morning but still took 3 photos within 100 yards, I thought an entry of its own
Reminder that the Aire is a car park. Leccy is available water is 10 cents per 10 litres. We prefer the...
Left early from Donauworth and straight run of about an hour on a Sunday morning saw us arrive about 0930 at Ingolstadt Aire.
We had read about awkward entry barriers but rolled up took a ticket and barrier raised. No dramas.
The way we came in makes me wonder how big Ingolstadt is. It was about...
Another day another cycle ride but only 48 Kms today and 26 Kms til a battery display disappeared so fairly flat.
Wife lied in til 1000 hrs but bike departure was at 1100 hrs.
The Danube/Donau was away from the river today so we decided the tributary that joins it at Donauworth was our cycle...
We have skipped a bit of the Danube.
We don't care. We noticed most of the cycle path up the next bit was on road. We like a bit of scenery and/or something other than just cycling.
We originally decided the free aire at Petersworth was our point of travel. That was when skipping a bit wasn't...
Batteries with a full charge and wife getting used to being up before 1000 hrs we set off down river from Erbach free aire with the intention of possibly making Leipheim (which we did and 72km round journey)
We went a different more scenic route into Ulm than yesterday and followed the Danube...
Got up relatively early and made off from our all free service to go another free all service without black waste stellpatzes at Erbach.
En route got our umwelt at a service station for 17.50 which was a lot more than I paid on the other van a few years ago.
We decided to sort of cut out Ulm and...
Woke up and nearly finished the charging of the batteries before setting off about 1000 hrs into a stiff breeze for the 37 km return journey.
Passing over the Danube 9 times today on good tarmac 95% of the time.
We had to raise our electric level to tour and although warm an undershirt felt...
Another early start in order to get to Reidlingen and found numerous traffic lights and unnecessarily frequent long stretches of 30 kph through towns.
Necessary stop at lidls and an Action arriving at the free aire with what seems to be free electric and water.
We are right up against the Danube...
Got up early and made off as it was forecast to be hot again. Hit 93 yesterday.
We were originally aiming for Erbach on the Danube but a seat belt audible alarm, incessant speed camera and warnings from sat nav, with terrible other drivers and the heat and traffic jams we saw a sign for an aire...
Finished my 12 hour night shift this morning with wife sleeping in car park and hot footed it to Dover for an 0955 ferry with P and O (cheapest)
Would have had plenty of time if we had chosen the left hand of 4 lanes to enter the port.
Got an hours kip then headed to Dudelange as we know there...

It is that time of year when we go on holiday and I do a journal. I call it a thrournal as I start with a journal and copy it into a thread. Hopefully others will do journals in the upcoming period as well. And the journal map is very helpful for holiday planning.
This holiday will be 28 days...

Intending to travel from around l'Orient down to as far as Ile de Re leaving on the overnight ferry from Newhaven on the night of 27th August.
In my signature you will find a couple of journals from this year, Bavaria and Languedoc, and some previous places I have added retrospectively under...
A collection of noteworthy previous stopovers and/or places we have visited worthy of consideration within France.
These are the places we have been to previously in Germany with information taken from previously posted material by ourselves.
We havent done a lot of Italy and I am unsure of how many photos we took but created for when we return. We had a friend there and left our van at her place while I flew back for a couple of weeks work
I have already posted about these and created a journal, but the journal was created incorrectly and the map part of things didnt work so Jim destroyed them at my request and am slowly but surely adding them up. Apologies if you have seen them before.
Belgium not as boring as one has always...
There is a thread of all the disused railway lines we have cycled on our travels on ebikes.
If all goes to plan, I just put the link in here on the journal and add the location and there will be a map of where we have cycled created and a link to the photos and the spiel I wrote about them at...
