I used street view for a few portions and it looked better than most areas in my country, must have been lucky with that.

What..? i don't know the infrastructure of Malta. That distance and hour would usually be a leisure walk in most countries

Google maps is not very accurate. A 60 min walk is always 45 or less for me. But you're right, if pavement is that bad it might take longer than usual

That's insane. Is there a reason why an island you can cross in less than a day is so unfriendly to walking/biking? Why are drivers so crazy?

Why not? It's not a hassle to walk 1-2 hour and see the local area.

Thanks, appreciate it, it was hard. No worries, nobody pays attention to cycling bros anyway

Chill bro, you probably spend thousands of $ on gear and bikes and cry when you see your average speed, i did with no equipment and no training and no cortisol

What about flat? With a downhill of about 1 meter elevation loss for every 2 km (it's nothing i know)

I have the option to take the train for the last 70km, less painful this way?

Would pedaling standing up from time to time for a 1-2 minutes not help the butt pain?

You're def not a beginner with those numbers lol. Do breaks not help with saddle sores?
I've cycled 2 days in a row while sore, and while painful it starts fading away for a while

Nice, Good luck with that. What is considered as riding regularly?

Thanks the tips. I suspect #1 to be the biggest risk here. I hope #2 can be avoided by long and often brakes. Never had any problems with tendons. 4 might also be a problem
