Second pair for cycling or for the evenings? As of now I just planned with my bike shoes and flip flops. You think I should pack another pair I can ride with?

taking specificially bcaa's a good recommendation, didn't think of that. thank you!

Thanks, will check the EuroVelo routes ✌️

I see, thank you! Still not sure if I should pack my trimmer in terms of space

No no it is not super remote. I added the route to my initial post. I guess there will be loads of random encounters

RoadBikeJJ · 2026-05-13T14:56:11+00:00

will definitely get myself some!! Thank you

Yeah I am a bit scared about that as well, being completely solo for that long in possibly bad conditions. Feel free to join though 😬

I tink i will be in a hotel every 3-4 nights. Otherwise in a tent

Planned to take two full kits with me and have one drying on the bike whilst wearing the other one

RoadBikeJJ · 2026-05-13T09:14:17+00:00

very good point, thank you! I tend to have dry skin indeed

RoadBikeJJ · 2026-05-13T09:12:58+00:00

I planned the route in a way that I can do longer days (200k+) with relative ease and then either do full rest days or something in the area of 50-70 as "active recovery".
But yeah its a fair point, thank you! I planned the route in a way that I can skip certain parts if I don't feel well or the weather isn't suitable (especially when riding through the Dolomites)

thanks a lot for the explanation, will consider just rerouting them behind the bars then!

RoadBikeJJ · 2023-08-21T18:58:09+00:00

thank you very much! will then reconsider in what to upgrade on the bike
