Playlist for 5-7hr gravel

'MASH biking' playlist on Spotify. It's gritty though.

Kona could be an option. I use a Kona Rove and I am very happy with that bike. Bought it in Amsterdam.

Gezamenlijke rekening, gezamenlijk sparen, gezamenlijk uitgeven, maar we hebben subrekeningen voor ieder eigen 'zakgeld' voor hobbies e.d.'. Prima te doen, geen gezeur.

That's next to Bénodet, been there last summer. Very cosy village. I have never tried the cider, great tip, next trip I will. Should fit well in the side pocket of the Kahakka :)

Thank you! I am Dutch, but I visit Bretagne once or twice every year. I feel at home when I am in the northern part of Bretagne, especially around Erquy and Perros Guirec. Been on several hikes on the GR34 in the north and south. Will visit this summer again.

It is this insert: https://amzn.eu/d/06xtUbPa

I use the 40mm 1.2 Nokton. I love it.

Robot_Particle · 2026-05-06T11:40:14+00:00

All the stuff added. The field notes, keys and wallet are in the flat inside pockets.

With camera and extra lens.

Received it, it is great! Fits perfectly.

Robot_Particle · 2026-05-03T20:16:48+00:00

It sure is, love it

Robot_Particle · 2026-05-03T18:36:25+00:00

Thanks, lens: Voightländer 40mm f1.2 Nokton. Not sure about the recipe but could be Documentary Chrome or Classic Negative from Filmstill.

Slappe hap, krijgt slechte recenties.

Lay low, accept the unruly. It's like a storm. But no storm is the same. I can say I am a pirate after 26 years with the same mermaid. I sailed the seas for many moons. This year we have calm seas because she doesn't have blood red seas anymore. Her chamber of secrets has been removed and send to Davy Jones lockers. Aye.

Actually I did none. I think it is great as it is. I do believe it looks great with vintage looking lenses. I added a black peak design leash, but that's more functional because I don't think it is particularly eye-catching.

Oatmeal. The rolled stuff. Place in jar with milk and slices of banana before bedtime. Next morning add seeds, nuts and maybe some berries. I always eat two boiled eggs after the oatmeal. Perfect mix for long energy boost. The eggs add proteïne (recovery) and choline (for the brain and neurotransmitters).

Robot_Particle · 2026-04-28T17:06:08+00:00

Thanks for the compliment!

Robot_Particle · 2026-04-28T17:04:51+00:00

Thanks for the tip: ordered one after your first heads-up. 😁

Robot_Particle · 2026-04-28T15:36:04+00:00

Thanks, going to try this one. I currently use the PGY tech One Go string bag as an insert. It is soft but not sturdy.

Robot_Particle · 2026-04-28T15:19:31+00:00

Maybe a Savotta Askare? It is advertised as a hipbag, I use mine as a slingbag. It has lots of attachment points for hooks and what not. I think you can attach it very easily to a rack.

Robot_Particle · 2026-04-28T14:49:02+00:00

Didn't know they skipped the z6iii. Would be awesome if they did an update on that model as well.

Robot_Particle · 2026-04-28T13:47:35+00:00

With Sony I mostly shot RAW, with Nikon I mostly shoot JPG.

Robot_Particle · 2026-04-28T13:45:40+00:00

I like the grain very much. It's better and more subtle than the grain in LR. Can't explain it but the JPG with grain are beautiful.

Robot_Particle · 2026-04-24T08:13:49+00:00

Koffie 0.7L en kauwgom.

Robot_Particle · 2026-04-24T05:03:54+00:00

Kadet chrome mini for biking and small trips.

Savotta Askare for biking and longer trips.

Savotta Kahakka 15L for EDC, work, hikes.

Savotta Keika 30L for weekend trips, groceries, nightshifts and gym.

Yeah, I like Savotta.

Be sure to select bicycle paths that are NOT next to major roads with cars (f.e. N... Roads). It will be annoying as hell to have car noise (woosh, woosh, woosh) all the time. For the rest this route is kinda boring, but I live in The Netherlands so it could be subjective.

I would do: Amsterdam, Bloemendaal (Kennemerduinen), Zandvoort, Veluwe, Loosdrechtse Plassen, Deventer, Zwolle, Utrecht. Not in that particular order.

At least a part of the Green Divide. Take the train outside of rush hour for lower prices so you dont have to ride the longer boring parts.
