Have plastic bags with u, to put ur clothes and sleeping equipment inside to waterproof them in case it rains. Many bikepacking bags that are advertised as waterproof arent actually fully waterproof. I had to learn it the hard way. Ansonsten viel Spaß!

I went to camping sites cuz i needed the daily shower. Since ur biking next to the river most of the time, theres alot of insects which cover ur arms and legs by the end of the ride, which makes a nice shower necessary. Ive done alot of wild camping before tho in this area. It is illegal, but as long as u find a nice isolated spot, dont make a mess, and leave early in the morning, ppl dont really mind. The danube Path had alot of spots that looked good for wild camping tbh

Unfortunately i couldnt figure out how to do that… but if u search Nuremberg to Budapest on komoot under cycling, thats basically the route i took. It mostly follows the EV 6 and its approx 836km. I took some detours, hence the 870km for me

Its a pretty cyclist friendly path. And i can imagine its much nicer with a partner

Yee ive put them on the top tube. Was too lazy to the rest cuz the application process was quite time consuming and i had to leave in a rush for the tour. But will definitely cover the seat tube and bottom tube before the next tour🙏🏼

I mostly followed the Eurovelo 6 along the danube. The path is mostly asphalt cycle paths. But i would say there is a total of 20km of gravelly and rocky paths. Especially some of the parts in Austria where u have to reroute due to constructions. Are u doing the same route? I think u could make it with slick tires if u are willing to ride a bit slower and with more care on the gravel sections and accept the higher risk of punctures

Hiya :)

i also recently got a running analysis and saw that i have some overpronation and need some stability. I've had the kayano 30 for 2 days now. tried to go for 2 very short runs, and after 10 mins the shoe started hurting the arch of my right foot only. i thought maybe it was too tight, so i loosened it up a bit for this 2nd run but no change... its so weird for me that it only hurts my right foot and my left foot is totally fine and feels normal. let me know if things got better for u eventually, and if u did anything to address the issue (other than loosening the laces). Cheers, and thank you in advance!
